• The trial of a tachograph technician accused of fitting interrupter switches has been adjourned until a date to be fixed at Grimsby Crown Court.
Kenneth Greetham is employed by Scanlink Grimsby: he denies fitting switches in vehicles belonging to Grimsby haulier MD Moody International, Greetham has pleaded not guilty to conspiring with the company's managing
director Michael Moody and eight drivers to use false
instruments, namely
false tachograph charts, with intent to deceive (CM 19-25 Aug 1999).
Judge Richard Hutchinson directed that the case should not be heard until
after the result of an appeal by the Vehicle Inspectorate against a ruling by Coventry Crown Court that a false tachograph chart is not a false instrument under the Forgery and Counterfeiting Act (CM 29 July-4 Aug 1999).
