Re:The  
How can we legislate against a basic right that all defendants should have? How can you possibly have a fair trial without knowing who is giving evidence against you? I think this will come up against problems if anyone tries to challenge it with the Human Rights Act in mind.

Re:Theft  

I hope members with prosecution experience - from the police or cps will answer this question.  Of course there may be a case for prosecution but there would have to be enough to persuade the CPS. Have a look at this offence and the CPS guidelines here:   http://www.cps.gov.uk/legal/s_to_u/theft_acts_incorporating_the_charging_standard/ This link for the twofold test set out in R v Ghosh http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWCA/Crim/1982/2.html and the theft act 1968 http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/content.aspx?ActiveTextDocId=1204238 .

Re:Three young males - falsely imprisoned & assaulted my son by beating!........  

Sir i am sorry for your sons situation and will strive to help you arrive at a conclusion to the sometimes bewildering life in courts and criminal investigations.It is clear your son was assaulted,but the court have to prove within a reasonable doubt that he was,then they have to look at the victim ie your son ,would the court process be good for him ,would he make a good witness ,would he stand up to cross examination .Then they have to look at after a costly trial would the perpatrators be facing a prison sentence under current legislation or would they be illegible for a caution , in considering all the facts it appears the case probably warranted a police warning or caution and although that is not what you wish to hear as a parent ,the record of the assault will be kept on file for future reference and if they where to come across the assailiants again their punishment would be more severe.I hope this answers your question

Re:time of court hearing?  
If you cannot get confirmation of the time from him or his solicitor you can check the court list the day before the hearing here:
