Following a public consultation, the CPS has published a final revised version of its Legal Guidance on Secondary Liability (previously titled “Joint Enterprise”).
The interim guidance on which we consulted was published in July 2017, in response to the decision of the Supreme Court in R v Jogee; Ruddock v The Queen [2016] UKSC 8; UKPC 7.
The Guidance sets out the main principles of secondary liability, as stated in Jogee and the subsequent Court of Appeal cases on secondary liability, R v Johnson & Others [2016] EWCA Crim 1613 and R v Anwar [2016] EWCA Crim 551.
