Defendants Apply to Lift Restrictions on Reporting Court Proceedings
Towards the end of the court hearing for the #47Democrats on Nov 29, one defending lawyer attempted to seek clarification from Magistrate #LawTakChunPeter over three legal stand points, including asking the court to lift the reporting restrictions set out in the Magistrates Ordinance.
Section 87A of the Magistrates Ordinance prohibits reporting the majority of details of committal proceedings, but defendants have the right to request that the restrictions be removed. Accordingly, several defendants' lawyers asked the court to remove the limitations.
Magistrate Law, in fact, sought assistance from one of the defending lawyers to coordinate the matter. The courtroom broke into laughter as the judge struggled with the overwhelming workload of a case with 47 defendants.
The magistrate decided to adjourn hearing the substantive arguments on the application to January 17, 2022 at 9:30am.
He ordered some defendants to return to the court on February 8, while another court appearance is scheduled for March 4.
