[2008] EWCA Crim 2563

Where an individual was young at the time of a previous incident, the incident had occurred many years previously, there had been no conviction and it was uncertain that it would be triable only on indictment, evidence of the incident did not have sufficient probative value to be adduced as evidence of bad character.
