Orders issued to young people should be reviewed each year, given young people’s
continually changing circumstances, to help ensure that they are receiving the support they
need in order to prevent breach. The review should be administrative rather than judicial and
should be undertaken by the team that decided upon the initial application. Where
practicable, the YOT should provide the group with an assessment of the young person.
Depending upon progress towards improved behaviour, possible outcomes will include an
application to discharge the order or a strengthening of the prohibitions. Applications to vary
or discharge the order will have to be made to the court in the usual way. The overriding
considerations remain the safety and needs of the community, and the review would have to
incorporate the community’s views on the order’s effectiveness.

- Appeals
Magistrates' court (acting in its civil capacity) and orders on conviction in criminal
proceedings
Section 4 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 provides the offender with the right of appeal
against the making of a stand-alone ASBO. Section 108 of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980
provides a right of appeal against an on- conviction order. An appeal in both cases is to the
Crown Court. Rules 74 and 75 of the Magistrates Courts Rules 1981 and 6 to 11 of the
Crown Court Rules 1982 apply to appeals against orders. Both parties may provide additional
evidence. By virtue of section 79(3) of the Supreme Court Act 1981, an appeal is by way of a
re-hearing of the case. In determining an appeal, the Crown Court should have before it a
copy of the original application lor an order (if applicable), the full order and the notice of
appeal. The lead agency should ensure that copies are sent to the court.
Notice of appeal must be given in writing to the designated officer of the court and the
applicant body within 21 days of the order (Crown Court Rules 1982, rule 7). But the Crown
Court has the discretion to give leave to appeal out of time (rule 7(5)). The agency that
brought the initial application should take charge of defending any appeal against the order. It
should also lead in action to guard against witness intimidation.
The Crown Court may vary the order or make a new order. Any order made by the Crown
Court on appeal shall be treated for the purpose of any later application for variation or
discharge as if it were the original magistrates’ court order, unless it is an order directing that
the application be re-heard by the magistrates’ court.
Although on hearing an appeal it is open to the Crown Court to make any incidental
order, for example to suspend the operation of a prohibition pending the outcome of the
appeal where this appears to the Crown Court to be just, there is no provision for automatic
stay of an order pending appeal.
The order remains in force pending the outcome of the appeal, and breach is a criminal
offence even if the appeal subsequently succeeds.
An appeal against the ruling of the Crown Court is to the High Court by way of case stated
under section 28 of the Supreme Court Act 1981, or by application for judicial review by
virtue of section 29(3) of that Act. It is also open to the applying authority to seek to
challenge a magistrates’ decision to refuse to grant an order by way of case stated (judicial
review of the decision to the divisional court) by virtue of section 111 of the Magistrates’
Courts Act 1980.
County court
Any appeal against an order made in the county court must be made in accordance with part
52 of the Civil Procedure Rules. Appeals against orders made by district judges will be to a
circuit judge and against orders made by circuit judges to the High Court.
