Nygaard's case has been adjourned for months as he faces charges in Toronto and the United States
The Crown wants the Quebec sexual assault case involving Canadian fashion mogul Peter Nygaard to proceed more quickly.
Nygaard's case has been adjourned for months as he faces charges in Toronto and the United States, and prosecutor Jerome Laflamme told a Quebec court judge today that the complainant wants to pursue legal action.
Nygaard, 81, was first arrested in Winnipeg in 2020 under the Extradition Act following nine sexual assault-related charges in New York.
He will stand trial in Toronto in September 2023 on charges of sexual assault and confinement.
Nygaard will face trial in Quebec for one count each of sexual assault and forcible confinement.
His Montreal court case was adjourned today and he is due back in front of a judge on April 14.
