Commercial Litigation EP27: General update
Manage episode 441744001 series 3359325
In this 27th episode of our series of commercial litigation update podcasts, we give updates on new legislative provisions relating to retained EU law, a decision refusing to allow a case to proceed as an "opt-out" representative actions under CPR 19.8, and a recent case that shows what can happen when parties disregard the rules on the preparation of trial witness statements. This episode is hosted by Maura McIntosh, a professional support consultant in our litigation team, who is joined by Rachel Lidgate, a disputes partner, and John Lee, a senior associate in our disputes team.
