Hello all.
Thought I'd update you all about my trial; a trial due to last 4 days going into next week. The defence are yet to open.
Monday morning I arrived at court within plenty of time ready for proceedings to commence, only to be told at lunchtime that the trial was to be held elsewhere due to a double booking at my local court. So Monday afternoon at 2.40pm, it commenced, jury selection completed and one half of the complainants ABE video.
The following day the ABE video was completed and she was crossed examined due to come back the following day for further questioning. However the next day legal arguements began over a document produced by the prosecutions forensic expert, which has caused significant delays as the defence are required to have this document checked.
The week concluded with the rest of the prosecution witnesses, most of them read aloud.
So all in I'm still waiting after 20 months for a decision on this and have another weekend of freedom.
Jury look like a collective group of people from a variety of different cultures.
