R v MICHAEL PEACOCK (2010)

[2010] EWCA Crim 1746

Whilst it might have been better had a judge, in the course of his summing up, said a little more of the features of the case before him by way of evidence, rather than simply by summarising submissions, he had undoubtedly given clear directions on the issues that the jury had to decide. A defendant's convictions for obtaining services by deception, fraud and attempting to pervert the course of justice were, accordingly, safe.
