# Pereira litigation: appeal panel, workplace findings and publication-ban limits

Reviewed 5 October 2026. Lead: user-supplied NewsForBC fact-check PDF; companion is a separate neutral court-source trail, not a verbatim republication or judicial misconduct allegation.

## Evidence
- 2026 BCCA 271: cover, pages 1–2, paragraphs 27–33, 47–67. Panel, hearing and judgment dates verified from actual reasons; full image-only PDF OCRed and cover visually checked.
- 2025 BCCA 391: cover, paragraph 1, paragraphs 21–24 and disposition. Gomery decided disclosure; Morley was the chambers judge.
- 2023 BCSC 928: cover and paragraphs 2, 8–9, 15, 17, 30. Harvey decided the renewed application; Tammen’s earlier ban and review are identified in these reasons.
- SCC docket 40631 confirms December 21, 2023 leave refusal from 2023 BCCA 31, not a new merits determination.
- Official rosters verify all seven full names; Harvey appears in former judges (2009–2026), not current judges.
- WorkSafeBC later no-penalty outcome is attributed to Harper Grey’s summary of 2025 BCCA 379. Those later full reasons were not independently read in this review.
