Understanding Offences Against the Administration of Justice

Offences against the administration of justice encompass a broad range of actions that obstruct or undermine the proper functioning of the legal system. These offences can include:

  • Obstruction of justice: This involves interfering with the administration of law or the judicial process. It may include actions such as tampering with evidence, intimidating witnesses, or providing false information to law enforcement.
  • Contempt of court: Contempt of court refers to actions that disrespect or defy the authority of the court. This can include disobeying court orders, disrupting court proceedings, or showing disrespect to the judge or other court officials.
  • Perjury: Perjury occurs when an individual knowingly provides false testimony while under oath. This offence is taken very seriously, as it undermines the integrity of the legal system and can lead to miscarriages of justice.
  • Breach of recognizance or bail conditions: When a person is released on bail or recognizance pending trial, they are often required to adhere to certain conditions set by the court. Breaching these conditions can result in additional charges and may lead to the revocation of bail.
  • Witness tampering: This involves attempting to influence or intimidate witnesses in order to alter their testimony or prevent them from testifying altogether. Witness tampering is a serious offence that can carry significant penalties.
