The man charged in the largest wildfire in Nova Scotia’s history is returning to court.
The lawyer for 23-year-old Dalton Clark Stewart entered a guilty plea in Shelburne Provincial Court in November to leaving a fire unattended when it’s not completely extinguished.
Wednesday’s appearance will be to set a sentencing date.
The 2023 Barrington Lake wildfire destroyed dozens of homes and structures.
Stewart entered not-guilty pleas to two other charges under the Forests Act, including lighting a fire on privately owned land without permission.
