MOOSE JAW — Former MLA, Greg Lawrence, 58, appeared in Moose Jaw Provincial Court on Nov. 20, where he pleaded guilty to assault, while the Crown withdrew another charge. 

As part of a joint submission, Judge Ross Green imposed a conditional discharge on the former Moose Jaw Wakamow MLA. He will spend the next 12 months on probation and must follow conditions, such as keeping the peace, being of good behaviour and having no contact with or being near Marjorie Lawrence.

As long as Lawrence obeys the conditions of his conditional discharge, he will not end up with a criminal record.

On Jan. 31, 2024, following an investigation, police charged Lawrence the day after he had resigned from the Sask. Party caucus, sitting as an independent for the remainder of the term.
