Cavan Medlock, a Nazi sympathiser, targeted an immigration law firm after reading about them in a Daily Mail article, leading to a terrorist attack.
Medlock's attack caused alarm within the legal profession, prompting senior lawyers to lobby the home secretary for more mindful language to ease rising tensions.
The ruling at Kingston Crown Court affirmed that Medlock had prepared for an act of terrorism but did not result in a criminal conviction due to his mental health.
Despite the serious nature of the act, Medlock's mental state meant he could not stand trial; a senior judge will determine the management of his detention.
