A high court judge has criticised a puppy farming company for attempting to get a lawyer jailed after she unintentionally entered an exclusion zone outside its facility while talking to protesters, in a case he said was bordering on “vexatious”.
MBR Acres, which breeds beagles in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, for use in laboratory testing, accused solicitor advocate Gillian McGivern of contempt of court, as a result of which she was unable to represent protesters against the site.
