The Upper Tribunal took a landmark decision by ordering that the First-tier Mental Health Tribunal hold a public hearing of AH's application for discharge from hospital, establishing the important principle that open justice should extend to the usually private setting of mental health tribunals.

Mental Health Solicitor, Kate Luscombe at Duncan Lewis is representing the client. The client's hearing is due to be held on Tuesday 27th September 2011. An article was written on Psychminded.co.uk about the landmark case, titled Broadmoor patient “determined to get heard” in landmark case.
