Musings and Snippets from a recently retired JP. I served for 31 years, mostly in west London. I was Chairman of my Bench for some years, and a member of the National Bench Chairmen's Forum All cases are based on real ones, but anonymised and composited. All opinions are those of one or more individuals. JPs swear to enforce the law of the land, whether or not they approve of it. Nothing on here constitutes legal advice.

A New Take On Granny's Pot Plant
A lady of 68 who the press persist in calling a granny (I am a granddad, but no journo has ever referred to the fact) has been convicted of offences involving cannabis and given community service. By all accounts she is something of a willing martyr and appears to have been leading with her chin for some time.
So what community work shall we give her? A bit of supervised crochet? Baking scones to give to the elderly? (whoops, that won't do) Certainly no gardening in the local OAPs'home, for fear of what she might grow.
Tricky. I am sure that some of you can do better than I.
