95. Court’s duty—Where Counsel is absent on the day of trial without any
explanation being offered and the Court has allowed some reasonable time to
elapse to cover unforeseen mishaps, the trial may proceed. Counsel may, on
good ground, move, before judgment, that the case be reopened but there is
no duty on the Court to offer the accused a new trial or the opportunity to
retain other Counsel. Codabux v R (1984).
