Gusman · 61-69, M

The answer, correctly answered by Dirannie, is the Crown.
Rex, being the reigning King.
Suffice it to say, the court case would be pre 6th February, 1952, for King George VI
After that date, Regina verses Shand would be used. For Queen Elizabeth

Shutterbug · 56-60, M

@Gusman usually written in court documents is R v Shand

Gusman · 61-69, M

@Shutterbug Correct.
