Regina v Edmondson; Regina v Weatherup; Regina v Brooks; Regina v Coulson; Regina v Kuttner [2013] EWCA Crim 1026; [2013] WLR (D) 262

“A voicemail message which had been received by the intended recipient and subsequently stored in the telecommunications system of the network provider so that the intended recipient might thereafter have continued access to it by playing back the message, remained “in the course of transmission”. The interception of such a voicemail message intentionally and without lawful authority was therefore an offence contrary to section 1 of Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000.”
