This is a question Little Victories

I recently received a £2 voucher from a supermarket after complaining vociferously about the poor quality of their own-brand Rich Tea biscuits, which I spent on more tasty, tasty biscuits. Tell us about your trivial victories that have made life a tiny bit better.

'Tis true.
If the OP ever ends up in court again he'll no longer be a person of good character and will no longer benefit from the prima facie presumption that he's telling the truth. Something to bear in mind if you're trying to assert your rights to something.

It was more the fact he won't be able to ever work for a professional body.
Having a previous conviction does not deny you the presumption of innocence, there is no 'prima facie presumption that he's telling the truth' also, you've misused the phrase 'prima facie'.

However in his own ham-fisted way he has raised the prospect of previous convictions being raised during the course of a criminal case
In the event of a conviction for an offence of dishonesty being raised it certainly will be taken into account when the court weighs the evidence given by the defendant.
The professional body aspect is taken as a given.

There was a lovely confession of a sexual assault on a child on here last week.

Did you pretend to be really sorry?

Also, my desire to not break the law is not based on any moral ground
high or otherwise.

I didnt have to pretend to be anything... as due to the rather strange way our legal system work sometimes... I didn't actually have to go anywhere near a court (just plead guilty -which I was...obviously)
