Joint Enterprise Liability (Sheffield Law Society Event)

Time:	17:00 - 18:30
Location:	Sheffield
CPD Points:	1

GCN's Mark George Q.C . will be presenting a session for Sheffield Law Society on the mens rea of secondary parties charged with murder following the case of R.V. Mendez.

In the recent case of R.v. Mendez [2010] EWCA Crim 516 the trial judge expressed his frustration at the continuing uncertainty of the law saying: “Anyone who thought that the House of Lords’ decision in Rahman [2008] UKHL 45 had clarified the law on secondary participation in murder would have had that view disabused if he had been in this court yesterday…” Mark George Q.C. will review the law in this area including the decisions of the House of Lords in R.v. Powell and English [1999] 1 A.C. 1 and R.v. Rahman [2009] 1 A.C. 129 as well as the Court of Appeal decision in R.v. Ullah [1999] 1 Cr. App. R. 319 and discuss the practical application of the principles to the sort of cases that come before the Crown Court.
