Holborn Adams represented a client at the Crown Court in relation to a racially aggravated public order offence.

Compensation and costs were also ordered.

Assault and Harassment - No Further Action
No Further Action - Case discontinued at pre-charge stage

Holborn Adams successfully submitted detailed pre-charge representations to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) on behalf of the client, who was under investigation for allegations of assault and harassment. Following consideration of the representations, the CPS decided not to proceed with any charges.

Controlling/Coercive Behaviour & Sexual Assault - No Further Action
No further action - police dropped investigation

In this case, the defendant faced serious allegations brought forth by his ex-girlfriend, who claimed that he had exerted controlling and coercive behaviour over her during their relationship. Additionally, she alleged that he had sexually assaulted her while she was still underage, which raised significant concerns regarding consent and the nature of their interactions. As a result of the thorough representation from Holborn Adams, the Crown decided to take no further action against the defendant. This outcome not only allowed him to avoid prosecution but also helped preserve his reputation and personal life from the impact of such serious allegations.
