 Re:Which cases are listed on database? (Posted on: 2012-02-09 00:09:27)
Working in a court a defendant has the right to elect trial by jury on an offence which is classed as an either way offence so the magistrates court will commit a case to be heard at the local crown court. However there are some case which are classed as inditable only and these cases can only be heard at a crown court as they have a greater sentencing power, mags can only impose up to 6 mths custody. these offences are rape, robbery, murder, some drugs offences (usual intent to supply) etc etc.

Which cases are listed on database? (Posted on: 2012-02-05 10:53:47)
Are all cases listed on this site please? Certain cases that I know of do not appear to be so, and I saw this post on another forum. \"(The site details cases from Crown Court upwards, so if the case was a Sec 18 GBH then it will be listed on the site. If the case was a Sec 20 GBH it may have been heard in Mags court).\"
