A trial date of 16th December 2013 has finally been set for three gamekeepers from the Morvich Estate, Sutherland, who are accused of committing alleged wildlife crimes.
The case against Mathew Ian Johnston, Jamie Robert Neal and William Robert Docharty was first called in November 2012 at Dornoch Sheriff Court. A series of adjournments (7 so far) have followed – see here for background.

I’ll wager that the trial will not go ahead and none of us will be remotely surprised.
