Abstract

Reflects on alleged violations of the ban imposed by the Criminal Justice Act 1925 s.41 on publishing photographs taken within courts or their precincts. Reviews the position before 1925, the rationale for the provision and the Parliamentary debate over the definition of "precincts". Discusses the subsequent enforcement difficulties, with reference to incidents such as the 1967 prosecution of members of the Rolling Stones for drug offences, and notes the complexities created by advances in mobile telephone technology.
