Regina v Foster
Regina v Newman
Regina v Kempster
Regina v Birmingham
Court of Appeal (Criminal Division)
“There was no absolute obligation on a trial judge to leave an alternative lesser verdict for the jury to consider whenever the defence to the more serious charge on the indictment involved an admission of a lesser or different offence; sometimes it would be appropriate, but sometimes it would not.”
