Harry Stallard successfully defends client in drugs supply case

Harry Stallard, instructed by Morgan Has, defended a young man who was unanimously acquitted after a 4-day trial at Snaresbrook Crown Court of possession with intent to supply cannabis. It was alleged that he, together with his co-accused, were out in his car selling the class B drug.
 
At the centre of the case was whether a phone with suspected drug dealing messages could be attributed to the Defendant, and whether seized cash had a legitimate source. There were also challenges to the opinion of an expert that the quantity of drugs seized was inconsistent with personal use.
 
Having always accepted simple possession of the cannabis for personal use, the client left Court with a small fine
