AB  - A series of short documents have been written in response to a request from the 
      UK Judiciary for explanations of research that was commissioned in response to 
      questions they had raised. These related principally to the potential impact of 
      primer binding site mutation (PBSM) but it became clear at an early stage that it 
      was necessary to explain related issues. The three scientific guidance papers 
      (SGPs) that have been prepared thus far are presented in their entirety so that 
      UK scientists may be aware of what has been presented to judges. Suggestions for 
      further work, including possible communication to jurors are discussed.
