and the mood the Judge is in that particular
day......unfortunately. Oh how so true when it comes to civil cases. What astonishes me is those who seem to think that the jury system has its problems. In my view the highly paid judiciary can come to just as bad a decision as any jury. I can well remember many years ago a certain Chief Justice of England & Wales hearing a civil action in which my family amongst others was involved agreeing that we had made our case and then finding for the other side making new case law in the process. We were unable to continue to the final stage (appeal to the House of Lords) due to the huge financial costs we had already incurred, the other party being our local council with a bottomless pocket - the local ratepayers. -- Mike Heather wrote: I agree......I wonder if Noel could appeal that ruling.
