‘TThe epic Bates v Post Office group litigation, which has dragged on for over three years, has been settled, the parties announced today with the Post Office admitting “we got things wrong in our dealings with a number of postmasters”. The surprise announcement was made days before judgment in the so-called the “Horizon trial” – the second trial in the class action – was due to be delivered.’
