A bail hearing for former fashion mogul Peter Nygard for charges of sexual assault is expected to go forward Thursday, following weeks of adjournments. He made his first appearance in court on the Toronto charges at the end of October, where court heard the charges involve seven different women. His bail hearing has been delayed at least twice. His lawyer, Brian Greenspan, told the court in December he and Ontario Crown prosecutors were trying to find dates to schedule a longer hearing. The Toronto charges were revealed the same day Nygard signed a consent form agreeing to bypass the court extradition process for the New York charges and move straight to ministerial review by Justice Minister David Lametti.
