[2007] HCJAC 75

McLeod (Alistair) v HM Advocate (No.2) 1998 J.C. 67, subject only to the refinements of Holland v HM Advocate [2005] UKPC D 1, 2005 1 S.C. (P.C.) 3 and Sinclair (Alvin Lee) v HM Advocate [2005] UKPC D 2, 2005 1 S.C. (P.C.) 28, remained the guiding Scots law authority on the test for the extent of the Crown's duty of disclosure, and appeared to be consistent with Strasbourg jurisprudence.
