Cleife, Julie
Published:
Julie Cleife was convicted in October 2010 of fraud by false representation and received a sentence of 100 hours community service and a costs order of £500.
The CCRC received an application for review of the conviction in March 2020.
This was one of the CCRC’s “Post Office” cases, referred on the basis that the prosecution amounted to an abuse of process and that therefore there was a real possibility the appellate court would not uphold the conviction.
You can find out more about Post Office / Horizon cases on the CCRC’s dedicated hub.

The CCRC referred the conviction in July 2020.
The Crown Court quashed the conviction in December 2020.
