And he wasn't punished by the judge because....?
In conclusion she rejected Jakštys’s evidence “in its entirety” and found for the defendants.
Given this was a high court case, that will not be cheap.
Sure, but losing a case isn't a punishment for wrongdoing during the hearings.
A real punishment would have been getting detained and having to pay a large fine
Since he obeyed the judge's orders it may have been difficult to prove contempt.
Courts also seem to take the view that a right to a fair trial includes the right to fuck up your own trial.
I imagine the solicitor coaching him via the glasses will be getting a lengthy complaint to the SRA, which could see him struck off.
Fingers crossed, shitty behaviour
Don't give the next crop of clueless political candidates any ideas.
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
