Hutchings, Lynette
Published:
Lynette Hutchings was convicted in July 2012 of fraud and received 120 hours of community service.
The CCRC received an application for review of the conviction in June 2017.
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 Court of Appeal quashed the conviction in April 2021.
