Appeal by the defendant Anthony Krohn by way of case stated from a decision of the Newcastle upon Tyne Crown Court on 28th February 1996 upholding his conviction at the Newcastle upon Tyne Magistrates’ Court on 30th December 1995 on a charge of assaulting a police officer in the execution of his duty. The central question which arises for decision on this appeal is whether the failure by a senior police officer to make a record in writing of the grounds for searching the defendant’s flat and the nature of the evidence that was sought rendered unlawful the subsequent entry by police officers into his flat.
