An Andover man has had his sentencing adjourned after failing to provide legal aid documents to his solicitors – despite being just a minute from the court. Norman Stringer was due to be sentenced on three drugs charges at Winchester Crown Court today (Thursday, March 11). However, because he had not provided payslips to his solicitors so they could apply for legal aid on his behalf, they did not show up in court. Addressing the 51-year-old, who had brought the payslips to the hearing, Judge Jane Miller said: “What good is that to me here?” She added: “You should have taken them to the solicitors. They are literally just down the road.”
