Practice and Procedure

R v GOVERNOR OF PENTONVILLE PRISON, EX P. JAMES LYNN (1999)

PUBLISHED December 7, 1999
SHARE

The applicant was entitled to release because he had been notified that he would be released on 29 November 1999 which had given rise to a legitimate expectation, and accordingly it would be unfair for the applicant to continue to be imprisoned.
