Ontario judge Paul Currie retired Jan. 30, 2026, after being found guilty of misconduct, avoiding a penalty hearing.
Ontario judge Paul Currie has retired effective January 30, 2026, avoiding a penalty hearing after the Ontario Judicial Council found him guilty of judicial misconduct on a balance of probabilities.
The panel upheld five of six allegations, including non-consensual sexual contact and causing bodily harm, based on the complainant’s credible account and inconsistencies in Currie’s testimony.
Criminal charges were withdrawn in 2023 due to insufficient evidence for conviction.
Currie, who had been suspended with pay since 2023 and served as Regional Senior Judge since 2019, maintained his innocence.
His retirement ended the council’s jurisdiction, halting further proceedings.
The case has raised concerns about judicial accountability and transparency.
