Abolition of a Surrey legal fee custom eyed by magistrates
The Survey Magistrates consider a committee to review a Surrey rule that charges a fee on acquittal for misdemeanours. A prior Clerkenwell case showed an innocent defendant facing payment and possible imprisonment, while a guilty verdict avoids the fee. The piece notes broader, harsher local customs, including an iron gag in Surrey, and contrasts law versus justice, with a Madrid timeline brief.
