    This is a question relating to a hypothetical scenario and is not a request for legal advice.
    In the event of a criminal conviction having been quashed and sent back to the original court for retrial, is it usual for the retrial to be presided over by the original trial judge?

    Like I say, it's not a request for legal advice. Just curious.

    I dont know but I would have thought not. Although assuming it was a jury case it might not matter too much. I would have thought definitely not though.

    Ahem:o Well it ALMOST happened in the Nally case. Mr. Justice Carney, who was the original trial judge, presided over the empanellment of the jury for the re-trial. I assumed (wrongly) from that he was also going to be the trial judge at the re-trial. Mea culpa. Apologies for providing duff info.:o
