R v OSCAR EDWIN FARMER (2013)

PUBLISHED January 18, 2013
SHARE

[2013] EWCA Crim 126

Leaving to the jury whether an alleged incident had constituted violent disorder was an error after it became clear through cross-examination that it had been impracticable for the incident to have occurred in the manner alleged. Separate incidents allegedly constituting violent disorder required jury directions in relation to each incident.
