Judicial Review
Criminal Appeals
In a Criminal Case you might consider that a Judge has made a serious error and want to challenge it. This can also arise in decision making of Tribunals for example the Parole Board where you may want to challenge the decision.
In such cases provided your avenues of appeal have been fully used then you can consider an application for judicial review.
Generally where there have been procedural errors which may make the decision unlawful or the decision making has been irrational then a remedy may arise.
If successful the usual outcome is to quash the decision and send it back for redetermination although this is not always the outcome.
Public Funding is available for this work or we can pursue judicial review on a privately funded basis.
There is usually a 3 month deadline from the date the decision was made for you to make an application so prompt action is essential.
