He was cleared of a further four counts of possessing chipped consoles. The jury at his trial voted unanimously against Higgs, whose lawyers requested leave to appeal which was granted by the Judge. A date for the appeal hearing has yet to be set. http://www.next-gen.biz/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=7675&Itemid=53"
