The trial judge did not err in refusing to discharge the jury on the two contested matters; however the summing up contained a misdirection effectively compelling at least a manslaughter verdict without a formal admission. That misdirection warranted granting leave to appeal but, applying the proviso to s83(1) CPO, the conviction was nonetheless safe and the appeal is dismissed.
