Original Note:
Although proposed, courts didn’t open 24 7 in response to the riots. In the UK, sentencing happens when someone pleads guilty. With video evidence, the rioters pleaded guilty. Jones pleaded innocent so the case goes to trial. This is UK law. https://www.lawgazette.co.uk/news/criminal-defence-lawyers-rule-out-24-hour-courts-for-riot-prosecutions/5120564.article
