Associate Nicole Jennings has been featured in the latest edition of New Law Journal, examining the Crown Prosecution Service’s revised guidance on private prosecutions and its implications for practitioners.
In her article, Private prosecutions, public scrutiny?, Nicole explores the enhanced oversight measures introduced by the CPS, including mandatory written reviews, greater scrutiny by the Special Crime Division, and an increased focus on disclosure obligations. She also considers the practical implications for private prosecutors, defendants and victims, and how the changes seek to balance the long-standing right to bring a private prosecution with the need for transparency, consistency and fairness.
