Criminal Evidence

R v Johnson [2007] EWCA Crim 1651, [2007] All ER (D) 159 (Jul)

Where a defendant pleads guilty on the basis of a written plea, the basis of the plea is a “confession” within the meaning of the Police and Criminal Evidence 1984, s 76 (A) and is therefore admissible at the request of a co-accused under s 76(A)(1).
