- Court of Appeal
Leave to bring the appeal out of time was granted; the identification evidence (recognition evidence and statements) was admissible; trial counsel's omission to seek a s45 procedure was not a material error given the investigative sequence; the trial Judge's directions were adequate in context and did not produce a material miscarriage of justice; consequently convictions were upheld and the appeal dismissed.
