Claim for Judicial Review against the refusal by Liverpool City Council to provide the claimant, Mr Anderson, with an indemnity in respect of legal costs incurred in relation to the defence of criminal allegations. The claimant claims that the Council misdirected itself as to its own legal powers and policy, wrongly concluding that it would be unlawful to provide the indemnity. The defendant Council maintains that it correctly interpreted its policy and correctly concluded that it did not lawfully permit the granting of an indemnity on the facts.
