[2012] EWCA Crim 190

It was not expedient or in the interests of justice to allow defendants, who had been convicted of murder, to adduce fresh expert evidence on a firearm that was used for the murder. To adduce the fresh evidence would be to subvert the trial process as it would allow the defendants to run a case on expert evidence that they had chosen not to pursue at trial.
