New Doesn't sound inherently unresonable
I don't know much about the British law but it doesn't sound inherently unresonable. If the police actually have to convince a judge they have a reason for the delay and there can only be one delay, I have no problem with this.

In some ways it would be better then the US system where the prosecuters charge people with everything they can think of and then drop the ones they don't think they can make stick right before the trial.

New No, they can keep extending it
But every 28 days they have to explain to a judge why they have to keep delaying.

New That would be ugly and open to abuse then
Particularly if they match the American system, which often lets the police decide which judge they want to review the matter.

Jay
New But it's *some* oversight
Everything's open to abuse. All you can do is make it more work. Like putting an alarm on your car: The right (wrong) people won't be slowed down, but it raises the bar.

New in 1789 the people of France cut off a lot of heads
because they were damn sick of letters de cache, basically an accusation with no review. I hope we have advanced past the 18th century.
thanx,

New Judging by the behaviours of our current crop of leaders
we've regressed past the 18th century.

If this keeps up we might have to take a long look at the various corrective actions that were taken from the Enlightenment.

"So don't pay attention to the approval ratings that say 68% of Americans disapprove of the job this man is doing. I ask you this, does that not also logically mean that 68% approve of the job he's not doing? Think about it. I haven't."
Stephen Colbert, at the White House Correspondent's Dinner 29Apr06
