Content




It is inevitable that, being who I am, this blog will contain a fair bit of comment on legal matters, including those cases which come before me in court. However, it is not restricted to such and may at times stray ‘off-topic’ and into whatever area interests me at the time.

All comments are moderated but sensible and relevant ones, even critical ones, are welcome; trolling and abuse is not and will be blocked.

Any actual case that I have been involved in, and upon which I may comment, will be altered in such a way as to make it completely unidentifiable.

Saintly Grandmothers

I see there is another spate of hand-wringing over the grandmother given a tagged curfew order for causing unnecessary suffering to her pet dog.
Why is it grandmothers are deemed incapably of criminal activity?

It is reported that she is humiliated at being treated like a common criminal – well isn’t she?

And here I must take issue with Ann Widdecombe, writing in the Daily Express, who questions what good such a curfew will do. Well Ms Widdecombe, it's not supposed to 'do any good', it's supposed to be (shock - horror) a PUNISHMENT!
