Thank you for the confirmation, it did have that smell about it from day one. It was purely a matter of curiosity for me, when you say he was suspended (new Judge) what was he suspended from please ? One last point, does anyone know the fate of the OP in the posting that 'princemac' answered ? I don't think I was alone in the curiosity department, the series of events stated in the posting were so odd and unlikely that I would have to give them the benefit of the doubt and go for the not guilty finding.
Thanks for the answers.
NNN.
