1. On 24 March 2006, the appellant was convicted of rape following a 5-day trial before Deputy High Court Judge Wright (as he then was) and a jury. The appellant sought leave to appeal against conviction and, following the hearing on 25 April 2007, we granted leave. Treating the hearing as the appeal, we allowed the appeal and quashed the conviction. We made no order for a retrial as the complainant had indicated in writing that she was unwilling to attend court a second time to give evidence
