Summarize

Richard Swan (who is acting for Gateway Casinos along with Andrew Jeanrie and Ian Thompson) appears in CBC News' coverage of Superior Court proceedings in a case involving Sudbury's Kingsway Entertainment District.

Lawyer Richard Swan spoke for Gateway Casinos, an intervenor in the case. Swan argued, in part, that the applicant was bringing up issues from 2017 that are not directly relevant;—referring to it as an "everything but the kitchen sink approach."

"The only question before the court is whether the four bylaws," passed in April 2018 to rezoning and amendments to the official plan "should be quashed for illegality," Swan said.
