THE LORD CHIEF JUSTICE: Mr Davis, we think the appropriate course is to adjourn this appeal so that the Crown Prosecution Service can be represented to deal with the issues of principle that arise. In particular, if it is to be said that a point is reached at which someone charged with a criminal offence has been proved guilty according to law at a stage prior to the conclusion of the proceedings, what are the principles that apply so as to satisfy that test?
MR DAVIS: My Lord, yes. I would be very grateful to be able to expand on the skeleton argument to address that issue.
THE LORD CHIEF JUSTICE: Yes. We will see if we can get this brought back this term, but it may be difficult. But we will adjourn on that basis.
