Adjourned part heard: The case is considered by the panel, the charges are read and the case must come back before the same panel. When the case comes back it will be listed as ‘resuming’.

It will not reflect any changes which have arisen during the earlier hearings, whether these are due to amendments to the charges or findings made by the panel.
