He also has something to say about the current legal scene and considers such thorny problems as the 2019 prorogation judgment and whether trial by jury might be dispensed with in order to clear a mounting backlog of criminal cases. Drawing witty lessons from a life of trials, Lord Brown finds time to muse on when a judge might choose to change a sentence already imposed, what to say after dinner and why the game of golf is strictly for the birds!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis expanded paperback edition includes \u003cem\u003eLast Scrapings\u003c\/em\u003e, thirteen new pieces written since the first publication of \u003cem\u003eSecond Helpings\u003c\/em\u003e in hardback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 228\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.48 x 7.81 x 5.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 27, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52447269880115,"sku":"9781739265724","price":28.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/RjhaWkhZakFuUFI0T3FVcGUxMzgxdz09_c7de6b0d-b790-4de3-a0d2-b084fbf56e05.webp?v=1759006598","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/second-helpings-last-scrapings-paperback-1","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
