Lawyers Should Soldier On
R v Ulcay [2007] EWCA Crim 2379
CA
19 October 2007
Weekly Law Notes Summary
A court could not oblige a defendant’s legal representatives to continue to conduct his case if those representatives considered that they were professionally embarrassed by doing so, but if the difficulty only amounted to an insufficient time properly to prepare the case they should “soldier on and do the best [they] could” in compliance with their duty to the court.
