"...perspectives...are those of "

The perspectives featured are those of the offender’s lawyers and the Court of Criminal Appeal.

Does this make sense? I am not sure if the way I phrased it would make it seem that the offernder's lawyers and the Court share the same perspective. The fact is that they are not the same.

Thank you

Hi, I didn't read it that way (that they were the same) to start with, but now that you mention it . . Perhaps it would be wise to reword it a little.

Thanks for replying Clive. 

What about 'both the perspectives of the offender's lawyer and the Court are featured'?

Would you say there is a way to phrase it which starts with 'the perspectives featured...'?

Thanks again

Hi,

What about 'both the perspectives of the offender's lawyer and the Court are featured'? No. Sounds like there are only two perspectives.
