Two of four newly appointed judges have been assigned to Peel’s Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton.

Justice Hafeez Shahbudin Amarshi and Justice Allison Dellandrea were appointed by Chief Justice Lise Maisonneuve effective March 7. Both have been assigned to the Brampton courthouse.

Amarshi was called to the bar in 2002 and has worked as a criminal defence lawyer and, most recently, as Crown counsel for the Public Prosecution Service of Canada.

Dellandrea was called to the bar in 1998. She has been serving as counsel for the Crown Law Office Criminal where she was the Criminal and Education lead for the Ontario Provincial Strategy on Internet Crimes Against Children. The other two newly-appointed judges — Joe Patrick Paul Fiorucci and Craig Fraser — have been assigned to Hamilton and Simcoe courts respectively.
