A decision was issued July 12, 2006, by the Honourable Konrad von Finckenstein of the Federal Court in file T-1309-05: IN THE MATTER OF Canada (Canadian Human Rights Commission) v. Tomasz Winnicki Summary: The Federal Court was asked by the Canadian Human Rights Commission to determine whether Mr. Winnicki should be found guilty of contempt of Court. The Court determined that Mr. Winnicki posted material likely to expose persons to hatred or contempt contrary to subsection 13(1) of the Canadian Human Rights Act and in violation of a previous Court order. He was therefore found guilty of contempt and ordered to be imprisoned for nine months. A copy of the decision can be obtained via the Registry or the Internet site of the Federal Court.
