Title: The spectre of Browne v Dunn: criminal proceedings in the era of pre-trial disclosure
Abstract: This paper considers the extent to which the traditional common law rule in Brown v Dunn, which requires a cross-examiner to put to an opponent's witness the nature of the case upon which it is proposed to rely in contradiction of that witness's evidence, applies to criminal proceedings where both prosecution and defence are required by statute to disclose their case pre-trial.
