Case Explained: Latest selection of Lincolnshire court results – Legal Perspective

■ We understand that some people may be angry or upset to see their name and address published here but covering court cases acts as a deterrent against crime and it is important that justice is being seen to be done. Under English Law, it is a general principle that criminal court proceedings for adults should be held openly and in public. Verdicts and sentences are normally given out in open court and so are in the public domain. Newspapers such as ours therefore have the right to publish outcomes of all such criminal court cases. Addresses included here are provided by Lincolnshire Magistrates’ Court Service and are those given by the defendant. They are only withheld when there is a court order in place.
