R v DAVID NIGEL JOHN MEACHEN (2009)

PUBLISHED August 5, 2009
SHARE

[2009] EWCA Crim 1701

Given that it was inappropriate for the court to receive fresh evidence that was either not central to the issue at trial or was simply a reiteration of the defendant's expert's evidence advanced at trial, but by a different expert, the defendant's conviction for causing grievous bodily harm with intent was safe.
