[2012] NIQB 102

A defendant's challenge to a decision by the Public Prosecution Service (Northern Ireland) to prosecute him for assault, having twice been informed that he would not be prosecuted, could be effectively pursued within the proceedings before the criminal court, as there were no exceptional circumstances to justify seeking a remedy through judicial review.
