Gulka murder trial delayed until late 2018, Jordan application pending
The defence lawyer for a man accused in a 2006 Eckville murder says a Jordan application is forthcoming.
“One-hundred per cent for certain,” Michael Scrase told Justice Ken Nielsen Friday in a Red Deer courtroom.
A successful Jordan application allows charges to be stayed if the case takes longer than 30 months to go through the courts.
Scrase is representing Shayne Gulka, 46, who is accused of kidnapping one man, as well as in the first-degree murder of Bradley Webber on Oct. 24, 2006 in the victim’s fifth-wheel trailer. Gulka’s co-accused, Kevin Brown, died in March.
