The court held the coroner did not misapply the law: he recognised the wider Middleton principles but properly exercised discretion to limit inquiry, correctly balanced public interest immunity against relevance and probative value and reasonably admitted prior violent convictions; omissions complained of (narrative verdict, murder direction, alleged bias) were not legally or factually material and the judicial review is dismissed.
