Case Highlights

This was a unique and exceptional case involving delayed prosecution.  On appeal to the High Court, the period of imprisonment was severely reduced from 60 months to 2 days.

A landmark decision in relation to the Mental Capacity Act.  Darrell successful argued that the will and lasting power of attorney were both tainted by undue influence and set aside.  The person in question was found to be lacking mental capacity and in turn deputies were appointed.
