[2012] EWHC 895 (Admin)

Individuals who had admitted bringing a fraudulent personal injury claim in a contrived road traffic collision were committed to six weeks in prison for contempt of court. That sentence reflected a substantial reduction from the original sentence the court had had in mind of 12 months' imprisonment as they had admitted the fraud and had willingly assisted the insurer in disclosing information.
