In a dramatic ruling in April, the High Court declared that the Government broke the law by stopping the corruption investigation into BAE's Saudi arms deals. This was the result of a legal challenge brought by CAAT and The Corner House with widespread support.

The Serious Fraud Office appealed and the appeal was heard by the House of Lords on the
7th and 8th of July. The verdict is awaited.

The appeal documents, including an outline of the Government and the CAAT / Corner House cases, are available.

A timeline of developments during throughout the whole legal challenge is available and includes links to key legal and background documents.
