Costly Tardiness

Well done to His Honour Judge Burgess, Recorder of Belfast. A defendant habitually failed to turn up at court on time, so Judge Burgess whacked him in jail till his next appearance.

Judge Burgess had told his victim's family his non-appearance was "very unsatisfactory but we have the ways and means of getting people to court".
