Relief from sanctions: round-up of recent decisions

17 March 2014. Published by Dan Wyatt, Partner

Please click here for our latest article which looks at three recent decisions concerning relief from sanctions following the much publicised changes in April 2013 and the seminal case of Mitchell v News Group Newspapers Ltd [2013] EWCA Civ 1537.

In these cases, relief was sought in relation to: (i) serving a deficient defence, (ii) delay in applying to set aside a default judgment; and (iii) relying on new expert evidence.  In each case relief was denied.
