The client was prosecuted for failing to provide. The issues in the case were reasonable excuse for failing to provide due to mental state and the failure by police to arrange a social worker for the client as a vulnerable person. The client was represented at the first hearing by James Brookes. At the second hearing Laura Heywood who was also the reviewing lawyer persuaded the court to impose 10 penalty points with no driving ban as the police had wrongly charged the client with fail to provide (in charge) instead of fail to provide (vehicle driver).
