The New Brunswick Court of Appeal ruling Bradley Scott Wilson of Chance Harbour will get a new trial as it overturns his conviction for sexual assaulting a bartender on the west side in January of last year.
The Appeal Court ruled the trial judge, Mr. Justice Hugh McLellen did not apply the law regarding reasonable doubt.
The trial heard differing versions of what happened in the bar after it closed and there were inconsistencies in the testimony.
When the new trial will be held hasn't been determined.
