A judge is expected to hear sharply differing arguments on Jan. 11 about the punishment he should hand to former RCMP intelligence official Cameron Jay Ortis.
In November, jurors declared Mr. Ortis guilty of three counts of violating the Security of Information Act and one count of attempting to do so.
They also found him guilty of breach of trust and fraudulent use of a computer.
A hearing scheduled for Jan. 11 and Jan. 12 will help Ontario Superior Court Justice Robert Maranger decide on a sentence for Ortis.
Following the jury’s verdict, prosecutor Judy Kliewer suggested the Crown would seek a prison sentence in the range of 20 or more years.
Mark Ertel, a lawyer for Mr. Ortis, said the defence would argue their client had already served enough time behind bars as the proceedings played out.
