AI generated

The Court of Appeal quashed the City Court's decision ordering the interrogation of a child in court and remitted the issue of whether an informal conversation should be held in the judge's office for retrial. The lower court had mandated a formal hearing, while the appellant argued for a less intrusive informal meeting. The appellate court found the procedural approach inappropriate and reversed the specific order to allow the matter to be reconsidered by the City Court.
