344D: Jury to be warned where principal evidence relates to identification
"The judge must tell the jury to be careful when the main proof is about recognising someone."
This part of the law used to talk about what judges should tell juries when the main proof in a case was about identifying someone. However, this rule doesn't exist anymore. It was removed on 1 August 2007 when a new law called the Evidence Act 2006 came into effect. If you want to know more about how identification evidence is handled now, you might need to look at the Evidence Act 2006.
