Someone moved this to "Regina v. Dudley and Stephens". Do we have a policy about whether we spell out "Regina" or just write "R." like it's an ordinary citation? I mean, we don't spell out "versus". Marnanel 19:53, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
- The convention is to use "R" for cases from anywhere in the commonwealth. No one has put any persuasive reasons to do otherwise. I will try to put it back myself.-- PullUpYourSocks 20:34, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Somewhat tentatively, I am linking this to William Robert Grove because:
- WRG sat on the Queen's Bench 1880-1887;
- Though I don't think that the Victorians had the modern practice of using first names to differentiate judges with common family names, even in different epochs (Denman illustrates that!), I can't believe they wouldn't differentiate two contemporaries.
Will try to find exact citation. Cutler 07:53, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
Why was this heard in the Divisional Court and not the Court for Crown Cases Reserved? Was it because the jury returned a special verdict (another article needed)? Cutler 16:06, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, Baron Huddleston persuaded the jury to return a Special Verdict - the first in a century. Court for Crown Cases Reserved could only act where there was a conviction. Also, it is mentioned by Hanson (1999) that "Sir William Grove" was originally scheduled to preside at the Winter Assizes [ie Exeter] but was replaced by Huddleston after consultations between the Lord Chief Justice and the home sec. It is not made clear later who is "Mr Justice Grove" at the QBD.-- mervyn 14:49, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
