Darren Snow successful in DBS Upper Tribunal Appeal Darren Snow, working with senior lawyer Zach Jones, of the Royal College of Nursing, have together secured removal of all restrictions on their nurse client JT. The nurse was initially acquitted in the Crown Court following a jury trial of allegations of sexual assault against patients. He was then cleared of the same charges by an NMC Fitness to Practice Panel following a further hearing before the nursing regulator. Despite being cleared in the Crown Court and before the NMC, the Disclosure & Baring Service refused to remove restrictions on the nurse’s record, thereby preventing a return to nursing and limiting other employment opportunities. The nurse had been unable to find work for well over 18 months following conclusion of the NMC case despite being cleared of all charges. Permission to appeal the DBS decision was obtained following a hearing earlier this year before the Upper Tribunal. With a full appeal hearing now listed in the autumn of 2025 the DBS have conceded the appeal and the nurse will have their name removed from the barred list. Our professional discipline team has growing experience in related DBS work and associated safeguarding appeals on behalf of its clients. For any further information or assistance please contact our clerks.

Successful Defence in Multi-Million Pound VAT Fraud Case involving the Film Industry Libertas Chambers Secures Successful Defence in Multi-Million Pound VAT Fraud Case involving the Film Industry Three of our silks and three of our senior juniors represented the lead defendants in this trial at Southwark, which followed a ten year investigation by HMRC. We represented the CEO and key employees of this London based multi-Oscar winning company. This was a complex case involving sub-contracting in film industry both in the UK and overseas. Our barristers mounted a comprehensive attack upon the disclosure system in this prosecution, which consisted of millions of documents. This involved detailed analysis and criticism of the handling of documentary and digital material. We also uncovered wholesale failures to comply with HMRC internal procedures in relation to the distinction between civil and criminal investigations, and the consequences that flow in relation to PACE rights and abuse of process. The trial was opened to the jury 6 weeks ago and they were then sent away whilst these issues were litigated. The prosecution offered no evidence today, 14th March 2025. This outcome underscores Libertas Chambers’ commitment to providing outstanding legal representation and defending our clients fearlessly with skill, precision, and integrity, in the most challenging and high-stakes cases. Our team continues to set a standard of excellence in corporate and financial crime litigation, and we are very pleased to have successfully safeguarded the interests of our clients in this significant case. Our barristers worked as formidable teams with the expert assistance and preparation of the solicitors listed below. We thank them for their instructions. Their skill, experience and expertise was an indispensable and integral part of the successful outcome. Simon Csoka KC and Roxanne Morrell acted for the CEO, and were instructed originally by Tony Barnfather and then Simon Morgan (Sherrards.) Felicity Gerry KC and Matthew Lawson acted for the Head of Accounts, and were instructed by Zeeshan Khan (Rahman Ravelli.) Ayaz Qazi KC and Jonathan Page acted for the Accounting Manager, and were instructed by John Kaye (Carson Kaye.) For further information, please contact our clerking team
