Solicitor to pursue mistrial after failing to persuade jury of false imprisonment aboard cruise ship.

A solicitor who claimed she was falsely imprisoned on a cruise ship after she was suspected of stealing a bracelet is seeking a mistrial. The case has been closely watched since it went to trial as it provides an opportunity to examine the inner workings of the justice system. The solicitor has argued that she was wrongly accused and that her rights were violated, but the jury was not convinced. This article will examine the details of the case and explore what led to the solicitor’s decision to seek a mistrial.


Caroline Fanning, a solicitor from Dublin, plans to seek a mistrial after failing to convince a jury that she was unlawfully imprisoned on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship. She alleges that one of the jurors had previously worked in the cruise industry, which she claims could have affected their impartiality. Fanning claimed she was falsely imprisoned after making a sarcastic comment about there being a possible suicide while on the phone with the ship’s receptionist in August 2015. The case will now be heard by a judge without a jury, with Fanning seeking damages from her travel agent and the cruise company.


In conclusion, the case of the solicitor who claimed she was falsely imprisoned on a cruise ship has come to an end. Despite her best efforts, she was unable to sway the jury in her favor and secure a mistrial. It is a timely reminder that the legal system values facts over speculation and requires a robust case to prove wrongdoing. While this situation may have been challenging for all involved, it also highlights the importance of having a solid defense to navigate the complexities of legal proceedings. As the dust settles, we can only hope that justice has been served and that lessons have been learned for all involved.
