During a pre-inquest review hearing Mr Mansfield, who represents the family, told coroner Andrew Walker at North London Coroner's Court that the inquest was delayed to protect the trial but "no-one lifted a finger to protect these proceedings".During a pre-inquest review hearing Mr Mansfield, who represents the family, told coroner Andrew Walker at North London Coroner's Court that the inquest was delayed to protect the trial but "no-one lifted a finger to protect these proceedings".
So, it's all settled: the inquest will go ahead on January 28 next year.
Or will it? There's still a variety of reasons why the date could slip.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has yet to complete its assessment of all the evidence or disclose all the material it should do to other parties.

And lastly, there isn't even a confirmed venue for the proceedings.
Mr Hutchinson-Foster, 30, was accused of giving a gun to Mr Duggan 15 minutes before he was shot dead by police in Tottenham. The jury failed to reach a verdict in the trial heard at Snaresbrook Crown Court.Mr Hutchinson-Foster, 30, was accused of giving a gun to Mr Duggan 15 minutes before he was shot dead by police in Tottenham.
