Just working through the #BawaGarba court transcripts of her testimony & cross examination now.
Yes, you read that right - I have transcripts.
Guess we'll just see how 'definitive' @deb_cohen et al's take on events really was?
Buckle up. Reality is about to put in an appearance.https://twitter.com/djnicholl/status/1055778977258856448 …

Unless there was a s4(2) contempt of court act order in place at the time (which would postpone not prohibit fair and accurate reporting) it’s unlikely the transcripts would be confidential to extent they reflect things said in open court. Possible but would be unusual.

Interesting, thank you. How are matters of innocent parties addressed in all this? Say for example if details of somebody's children were to be mentioned during background, would some sort of restriction not apply to the publication of that aspect? All new to me, this.

Nope. General rule is if it’s open court it’s in public domain unless you are successful in obtaining a reporting restriction at the time. And presumption is open justice. If you’re bored w/transcripts have a read of Supreme Court case Khuja: http://www.bailii.org/uk/cases/UKSC/2017/49.html …

Ooh... that looks like an interesting read. Thank you very much.

I’m off to watch Strictly

Now there's a plan. Don't tell me.. you've been humming the theme tune all day?!
Enjoy. -
It’s not as good without Bruce but it’s a welcome break from work (and less dangerous that Twitter)
