World juniors lawyers back in court [Video]

The sexual assault case against five former Canadian world junior hockey players was back in London court on Tuesday.

Lawyers representing the players dealt with the matter briefly via Zoom.

A ban on publication is placed during a judicial pre-trial which deals with legal procedural matters before the trial.

The five players were charged in connection with an incident involving a woman at a downtown London hotel room in the summer of 2018.

A trial in the case date is expected to be set in the coming weeks.
