RE:RE:Tribunal or Court date ?Most courts will not overturn a decision or penalty made by a tribunal, unless there is evidence of wrong doing. The AMF will make a decision based on arguements put before them. If they levy fines etc those will have to be paid on the terms of the tribunals decision. One of the parties can file an appeal with the supreme court, but still the penalties stand until the court says otherwise. But for the courts to overturn a tribunals decision there will have to be pretty good evidence that showed the tribunal's penalties were out of line or the processes were flawed.
So we will have to wait for all the arguments from all the parties to be presented. Both sides will have the oppertunity to challenge the other party's evidence under cross. So the evidence will either stand or be ruled as not admisable. To be charged under a tribunal is serious as to how those charges were brought forward and the rules were interpritted will be challenged in the hearing.
As to who brought these charges forward and their motives as saaid in the press releasee that will all come out in the hearing. But if the motives that brought these charges were rules were broken it doesn't matter who brought these issues to light or their motives.
But with the star witness or the witnesss who can answer unanswered questions not being able to testtify or be able to explain their wishes, that being Peter's father who is now deceased I think that the charges will be dropped. Peter has said that he was acting on behalf of his fathers wishes, and without his father being able to say so or be questioned in cross there is no way Peter's testimony can be questioned without any statement from his father saying otherwise.
