From what I understand, certain interested parties were allegedly more concerned about the Whole Life Tariff issue than they were about an appeal, as they felt to some extent the appeals process was still in the pocket of the authorities.
Strangely enough I would say it's the other way around, more concern would be given to the application to the CCRC. Basically because even if the ECHR came back in favour of Jeremy, it would actually make little difference to his chances of being released any time soon.
Huh, nobody is saying it has anything to do with guilt or innocence, only a fool could be confused by it. I'm just genuinely surprised that the same legal team would act for all parties, it's probably more to do with sharing the cost than anything else.You seriously need to stop seeing some sort of conspiracy everywhere you look.
How about, because some of us feel we practically live with you, Hartley? As fellow campers here, we're forced to know you so well. Every silly shout of, "I rest my case!", every nuance of your over emoticonned being exudes barely suppressed pleasure at the prospect of Jeremy being denied justice.How does that song go...?Every single dayEvery word you sayEvery game you playEvery night you stayWe've been watching you.
Result is - whole life tariff is legal.
The question of course is why are you surprised?
You've lost me, surprised about what? The same legal team for all three, well because I just haven't heard it revealed before, even when I've asked the direct question of why they are all grouped together in the past.That's all.
The same legal team acted for all three because the same legal issue arose in each case. It is not uncommon for this to happen.
Now the Home Secretary no longer has the power to impose full life tarriffs, who has?Is it just the judge that can do this?
Yes, since 2002. Decision rests with the High Court rather than the Home Secretary.
The document in this thread may be worth a read regarding the sentences:http://jeremybamberforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,808.msg21294.html#msg21294
Yes I understand that.Read my post in this thread:http://jeremybamberforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,1693.msg52001.html#msg52001And you will see that it has genuinely perplexed me for some time.
Sometimes legal representation is shared for cost reasons. In other cases the court indicates that it wishes to hear several cases together as they each raise the same point of law. That happens in the UK courts as well as in the ECHR.
