[2010] EWCA Crim 385

Where advocates representing the defence and Crown in a trial involving allegations of sexual offences had ignored an order of the judge and disclosed documents from social services files to a jury, the judge's severe criticism of defence counsel in the presence of the jury had not affected the fairness of the trial or the safety of the conviction.
