Alexa Clement instructed Charlotte Godber of QEB Hollis Whiteman, on what Charlotte describes as her ‘shortest ever Crown Court trial’. A full acquittal of Mr C was secured in one hour and 56 minutes, after CCTV footage and cross-examination of the Complainant revealed that Mr C had been falsely accused of a sexual assault. The assault was said to have occurred after an awards ceremony in a central London hotel.
A Judge, sitting at Inner London Crown Court, directed the jury to find Mr C Not Guilty after accepting Charlotte’s legal submission that, at the close of the prosecution case there was no case for Mr C to answer.
Alexa Clement said, ‘Charlotte picked up the case quite late in the day but got to grips with everything and reassured the client that he was in safe hands. Through Charlotte’s skilful questions in cross examination, and use of CCTV footage, the Judge and the jury came to see that the witness had been lying about what had happened. After being directed to find the defendant ‘not guilty’ jurors came up to Mr C before leaving court, they shook his hand, some expressed their disbelief that he had ever been charged.’
