Summary
The Naked Rambler, Stephen Gough, appeared in court via videolink from prison to challenge his conviction for breaching an antisocial behaviour order by walking out of prison wearing only boots and socks, and was unsuccessful in his attempt to quash the conviction. In addition, his appeal against the "manifestly" excessive jail sentence was also rejected by the judges.
