For obvious reasons I'm going to be vague.

I've recently completed Jury service. 2nd time in my lifetime. Separated by 20ish years. Much as its a faff to go back and forth and sit around. I found it interesting. And my fellow jurors were a sensible bunch who took it seriously

However, the case I was on was ended prematurely for "reasons" and the judge sent us all away.

I've looked online and found the case I was on. And also found that the retrial of the defendant is scheduled in due course.

Is there a free to look at website that I can check in the near future to see the result and any sentence given out?

My missus finished a 3 weeker recently and the sentence was passed on Monday. She has been phoning for the judgement twice a day since and no one is picking up the phone.

However that isn't a surprise; she was shocked by the lax nature and general incompetence of everyone involved except the judge. Barristers excuses such as they couldn't find a hole punch or the photo copier was busy were used to defend their inability to do "admin". Of those 3 weeks only 2 DAYS were without incident that should have been avoided.

No wonder our justice system is in the bin!

She should send an email. Preferably with the case number in the heading.
