THUNDER BAY - The case against a former Thunder Bay lawyer accused of several counts of sexual assault continues to make its way through the court.

On Wednesday, Alexander (Sandy) Zaitzeff’s case appeared before an Ontario Court, with regional crown, Marc Huneault of Sudbury, requesting to clean up information in the court files of the case, including removing duplicate charges.

A pre-trial was held in Barrie on Oct. 13 and the matter will appear in a Thunder Bay courtroom again on Nov. 7.

Zaitzeff was charged on Nov. 21, 2016 with several counts of sexual assault, sexual interference, invitation to sexual touching under 16, assault, and mischief under $5,000.

Last March he was granted $27,000 bail and released into house arrest.  

Details of the case are subject to a publication ban.
