Jamie Gillman, 34, and Russell Gillman, 64, appeared briefly Wednesday in court, where their lawyers and the Crown agreed to meet over the next six weeks in a relatively new process called “restorative justice.
“It is essentially a negotiation aimed at satisfying all parties without a trial,” Bruce Daley, who represents the younger Gillman, said.
“We are not going to conduct on this process in public. We won’t be commenting on the state of either (Gillmans) at this time.”
The father and son attended a Maple Leafs game on Jan. 29, 2015 and then went to Union Station.
The TTC has alleged the dust-up began with an assault on one of two TTC officers involved. Both Gillmans face assault and uttering death threat charges.
A video showing the fight unfold emerged online, prompting an investigation by Toronto Police. The footage appears to show one of the officers delivering several overhand punches to the head of the younger Gillman.
The case was adjourned until April 6.
