Success for Deni Mathews and Michael Green

Acquittals at Court Martial Trials

Deni Mathews appeared before a Courts Martial in Catterick. Three Royal Marines faced allegations arising from an alleged inter service assault whilst personnel were posted to Cyprus. Deni’s client was acquitted of the allegation by a board of 6 after a trial lasting one week. The case involved interesting issues as whether or not a joint enterprise had been established

Michael Green successfully defended a Royal Navy Senior Rating at a Court Martial sitting at Bulford Military Court Centre.

Michael’s client was charged with Battery and Assault Occasioning Actual Bodily Harm. The trial was heard by a Judge Advocate and a six member Board of Officers. The client always maintained he had acted in self defence during the incident, and was acquitted of both charges.
