Practice and Procedure

R v JAMES PETER WILLIAM LLOYD (2005)

PUBLISHED April 22, 2005

Where the appellant was facing trial on counts of indecent assault against four victims, the judge had been wrong not to allow him to cross-examine one of the victims about entries in her diary after she had given conflicting evidence about the date on which the alleged offences had taken place and had lied about a friend making an entry. The diary entry was not sexual behaviour within the Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Act 1999 s.41 and was relevant.
