Good morning Voornaam

 

Today we bring you part one of a new week-long series aimed at investigating how Scotland's legal system is under severe strain, as pandemic disruption and a surge in serious complex cases add pressure to the system.

 

The series, penned by our Investigations Correspondent Martyn McLaughlin, explores how it is now commonplace for two-and-a-half years to pass before verdicts are reached in Scotland's High Court.

 

You can read part one right here.
