Curtis Warren has questioned the prosecution's late submission of material during his trial for plotting to bring drugs to Jersey.Warren, 46, and five others were found guilty in October of conspiring to smuggle in £1m-worth of cannabis. He was sentenced to 13 years in prison; the rest of the gang got between five-year and 12-year jail terms. Defence lawyers for all six men are appealing against the convictions and length of their sentences. Earlier they questioned whether the trial had been fair because of the late disclosure of some Crown material used in the trial. Advocate Stephen Baker said it was meant to be released to the defence a year before the trial, but some came 24 hours beforehand. The late disclosure weakened the defence, he told appeal judge Dame Heather Steel. Defence lawyers also questioned the way a juror was removed during the two-week trial. The decision to remove them during was made at a meeting between the trial judge and prosecution lawyers, without the defence team being present. They said that led to justice not being seen to be done. The defence was told in open court the juror was removed because of a contact by an outside source, the prosecution said. The defence argued they were unable to challenge that decision with the judge during the trial. The appeal continues in the secure court at Jersey Magistrate's Court building.
