Abstract Although hypnosis is widely recognized as a valuable investigative tool in the mental health and criminal justice system, information and opinion formed on the basis of hypnosis interviews generally have not been admissible as evidence in Canadian courts of law. More recent judgements have allowed hypnosis into the criminal courtroom and the present paper discusses these precedents now set and examines the reasons for this change with particular attention to the specific legal and mental health problems for which the changes were made.
