Sir Robert Hugh Mais (14 September 1907 – 14 February 1996)[1] was a High Court judge in the United Kingdom.
Hugh Mais was selected as the trial judge for the 1973 trial of those including the "Shrewsbury two", Ricky Tomlinson and Des Warren, charged in relation to picketing in Shrewsbury.[2]
Speaking in the House of Commons on 23 January 2014 David Anderson MP (Blaydon, Labour) said:[3]
During the same speech Anderson quoted a 2012 statement from a David Altaras who was a junior barrister at the 1973 trial which said, in relation to the judge Hugh Mais:
Mais reportedly once had a man arrested in Newcastle for making a V sign at his car. After the individual was held for two hours Mais accepted his explanation that he had mistaken him for the Mayor.[4]
