Good afternoon from Day 4 of Dr Michael Webberley's (MW) tribunal @jeeeez17 here

Today's session started at noon but is currently in private session. We're expecting to hear progress re MW's application for voluntary erasure from the GMC register and if this has been successful.

@Jeeeez17 Please note that I have a frozen shoulder so I may be tweeting out in blocks during the day today if things are too fast for my shoulder's capacity. Thanks for your understanding

Abbreviations:
SJ Simon Jackson QC is counsel for GMC and his junior Ryan Donahue (RD)

We are not sure who will be representing MW today as his previous counsel is unavailable

Session adjourned until 2.30pm which will start in private. There may be a public session later today but it's too early to say right now.

We're still waiting to hear any news about the possibility of a public session. It sounds like there's been a remote access interaction recently but the session currently remains private.

We've just been advised that there will be a public session this afternoon

We're in. Returned to public session to undicate what's happened . Application for vol reasure by case examiners (decision on Fri) which has been rejected. So MW remains on register. Representations today to adjourn the hearing. Sunstantive adjournment will be determined this Fri

at 9.30am in private session. Will go back to public session later today. Rule 19 private session going to be happening now.
Case mgmt hearing tomorrow commencing at 11am that is very likely to be in private as it pertains to case examiners matters that were discussed last Fri.

Back into private session now

Tl;dr - MW's application to be voluntarily erased from the GMC register has been rejected. He's also made a substantive application to substantively adjourn the case. The decision whether or not this happens will be made this Fri 18th from 9.30am
