"However, Lord Doherty decided that clause 8.3 does not oblige the defender to pay the costs of the pursuer defending the criminal proceedings which have been brought against him. He concluded that on a proper construction of the clause those criminal proceedings do not fall within its ambit. "

 

A sensible decision.

An even more telling quote at the end imo.

" In view of the orders in terms of s.4(2) of the Contempt of Court Act 1981 made by the High Court of Justiciary on 16 October 2015 and by Lord Doherty on 12 November 2015 it is not proposed that the Opinion be published until the criminal proceedings against the pursuer and his co-accused have been concluded. "

 

I suspect he would have loved to tell Green the exact reason his erse was out the window in this case.

Next up Chuckles will expect Rangers to pay for his plastic surgery bill, to have his Rangersitis removed.

The deranged on their own sites are delighted to report that Green can appeal.

Give it up Charlie. Start handing the cap around for the criminal trial. I suspect you'll need it.
