The court considered the calculations of damages for a claimant who had been unlawfully detained in prison. He had been serving a sentence of 10 years imprisonment. He had sought release at three quarters of his sentence as of right but this was at first refused, and he was detained beyond the date which the court of appeal later confirmed should have been his release date.
