Abstract
I argued that the decision in R v J was fundamentally flawed because their Lordships had not considered that an arbitrary time limit which prevents meritorious prosecutions for underage sexual intercourse may violate Article 8 ECHR. I suggested that this should be one rare case where their Lordships ought to reverse one of their own decisions.
