In the UK you can be held in remand until your trial date. That's what happened to him the first time, but he appealed and got off remand until his trial date, which was today.

Jesus. Weren’t the same charges dismissed only months ago? If so, that’s some legal system you got there.
He was released from prison August last year as the appeal court found technical flaws in how his care has handled. (Basically rushed when it didn't need to be)
He went back to court and was found guilty again.
I don't see anything wrong with that part of our legal system.
Tried twice for the same crime? That flies in the face of human rights.
No it doesn't. It happens all the time.
Not to in countries who care about human rights.
“"No one shall be liable to be tried or punished again in criminal proceedings under the jurisdiction of the same State for an offence for which he or she has already been finally acquitted or convicted in accordance with the law and penal procedure of that State."
But I guess the UK didn’t care about this option provision.
“This optional protocol has been ratified by all EU states except three: Germany, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands.[10] In those member states, national rules governing double jeopardy may or may not comply with the provision cited above.”
en.m.wikipedia.org...
Double jeopardy laws would never have applied in this case as he wasn't found innocent. The same circumstances could apply in the US.
Oh, for some reason I thought he already went to jail for it.
He did.
He was released on appeal due to flaws in handling of the case.
The case was then retried and he was found guilty again.
At no point has he been found innocent and retried.
Double jeopardy applies also to those who were convicted and did time.

He was warned previously for filming outside the court as it could have interfered with the court proceedings. He was warned not to report from outside the court, he defied a court order on a blanket ban on reporting until the trial was over.
Say, for instance, someone is convicted. Later transpires that one or more of the jury had seen a video Tommy made and published online and this influenced their decision to convict. Those found guilty could then use that as evidence of a mistrial and basically ask for the case to be thrown out or conviction quashed.
Robinson has no such power.
