The court is now in the unenviable position of trying to help the MDT extricate itself from the entirely untenable situation it’s in following the directions of HHJ Moir.  I am left wondering how everyone thought this would be brought to a satisfactory conclusion.  What  ‘exit plan’ was envisaged at the point the judge set the wheels in motion for covert medication?  Nobody can have imagined that A could be detained and covertly medicated for the next 30 years – but nobody seems to have planned for any alternative.
