Custody Time Limits

 

This module is an overview of the main requirements of the Custody Time Limits Regulations as applied in the Magistrates Courts. The basic rules are set out and explained, together with reference to the applicable periods, their effect and the consequences of failing to adhere to those limits. There is a worked example to test understanding of how calculating the limits accurately is achieved. The module links directly to the current Custody Time Limit Ready Reckoner. The module is not intended to replace the half day classroom course which is available for all staff, but may be useful as a pre cursor to that course.

Total Time (approximate): 30 Minutes
