A family who have been fighting to secure justice after a vulnerable dad-of-two was 'unlawfully killed' has secured a judicial review hearing. Gavin Brown died in hospital on April 20, 2019, eight days after an altercation outside a Stretford pub.
"The judge’s decision to grant permission in our application for judicial review is a huge vindication of our efforts." Gavin's family pursued the judicial review following positive advice from specialist public law barrister Jodie Blackstock, of Garden Court Chambers. "It is therefore very encouraging that the judge considers that there is merit to the arguments we have submitted in Gavin’s case. We look forward to the hearing in July and the opportunity to present our case before the judge.”
