The government is set to announce plans to restrict the right to a jury trial in England and Wales in an attempt to turn around unprecedented backlogs and delays in justice.
David Lammy, the deputy prime minister and justice secretary, will lay out the proposals in Parliament later on Tuesday.
But he has insisted that juries would remain a "fundamental part of the criminal justice system".
It is not clear if the plan - which would end jury trials other than for most serious cases including murder - has been approved by Cabinet or retreated from.

On the right is Hamoud Al Soaimi, he raped a 13 year old and sexually assaulted a 12 year old girl.
He got ZERO prison time.

16,499 people died by euthanasia in Canada in 2024, accounting for 5.1% of all deaths in the country.
According to the latest report on “medical assistance in dying” (MAiD) from Health Canada released at the end of last month, there was a 6.9% increase in state-assisted deaths in Canada in 2024.
In 2024, although assisted suicide is permitted, in which the person who wishes to end their own life self-administers the lethal substance, there was not a single case of assisted suicide. Instead, every single person who died under Canada’s MAiD programme died by euthanasia. In 2023, there were fewer than five instances of assisted suicide.
There have been a total of 76,475 instances of euthanasia and assisted suicide since they were made legal in Canada in 2016.

Twelve ex-police officers would have faced gross misconduct cases over the Hillsborough disaster, a long-awaited report from the policing watchdog finds.
Ninety-seven Liverpool supporters were killed during a crush at the FA Cup semi-final at Sheffield Wednesday's Hillsborough ground on 15 April 1989.
The law at the time means no officers will face disciplinary proceedings because they had all retired before the probe began in 2012.

Russian President Vladimir Putin today warned he is ready for a war with Europe - as Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner arrived for peace talks in Moscow.
Ahead of a meeting with Kushner and US envoy Steve Witkoff, the Kremlin strongman also warned that defeat of European powers would be so absolute that there would be no one left to even negotiate a peace deal.
'We are not planning to go to war with Europe, but if Europe wants to and starts, we are ready right now,' he said.
