Case Reports for Unlawful Arrest Warrants

If an arrest warrant is issued or carried out unlawfully, the person arrested may be entitled to compensation.

For an example of this type of arrest warrant, and how compensation can be paid, click here to read the case reports of Mr. D, who was arrested at Gatwick Airport on an unlawful arrest warrant.

Case Report for an Unlawful Court Warrant

When a court warrant is incorrectly left on the record and executed by the police the consequences can be very serious.

Read the case reports for Mr. C, who was arrested as an outstanding court warrant (which had previously been dealt with) had not been removed from the police national computer. Follow this link for more.

His compensation claim was successfully pursued by Donoghue Solicitors on a ‘no win no fee‘ basis.

Case Reports for an Unlawful Search Warrant

Mr. A and his father were both asleep when the police raided their home.

As the Metropolitan Police executed a search warrant, it became clear that the address on the warrant was not the same. This made the search unlawful.

Kevin Donoghue of Donoghue Solicitors represented the two men in their civil actions against the police claim after an unlawful search warrant.

International Arrest Warrant Claim Case Study

Armed Italian police wrongfully arrested Mr. J.M. relying on an expired international arrest warrant.

The police held him for 12 hours while they confirmed J.M.’s explanation that the warrant had been cancelled.

Donoghue Solicitors helped him recover compensation and, importantly for JM, got written confirmation of the steps taken to avoid a repeat of this terrifying episode.
