Extract

The European Court of Human Rights' decisions T. v. The United Kingdom (16.12.1999 E.C.H.R. No. 24724/94) and V. v. The United Kingdom (16.12.1999 E.C.H.R. No. 24888/94) represent one of the final stages in the notorious Bulger murder proceedings. The Court considered a number of applications by the defendants regarding the legality of their trial and sentences. The Court issued separate judgments for each applicant but, as they differ only in the details, they are considered here together. There are two main decisions that are of particular significance.
