The BC Court of appeal has dismissed Carol Berner’s appeal of her drunk driving conviction.
While the three-member court of appeal panel did find some errors with the original trial judge, they concluded that Berner’s appeal would be dismissed.
Carol Berner, who was out on bail, has now had her bail revoked and is beginning to serve her prison sentence.
But her lawyers say they will likely launch an appeal of the two-and-a-half year sentence.
She was also handed a five year driving ban.
The sentence came from a 2008 crash that killed four year old Alexa Middelaer.
