New "Sticky" concerning Legal cases and Judgments.....any suggestions?????

[tomtubby]

The following are lists of legal cases /Judgements and a description of the relevance of each case.

 

As an example I will be providing copies of the following:

 

Toseland Building Supplies v Bishop Groundworks Ltd: This appeal court case is relevant if claiming that goods or a vehicle are "Tools of the Trade".

 

DSI Foods etc: This vitally important appeal court case regarding Shergroup Ltd confirms that a bailiff CANNOT assume that all goods in the property belong to the debtor and that he must ensure that he reads any documentation given to him. The 2nd most crucial part of the judgment is that a bailiff should only visit the address given on the writ of fi fa/warrant.

 

Michael Throssell v Leeds City Council: This case was one where Mr Throssell was seeking "detailed assessmant" of the bill from a bailiff and where the District Judge confirmed that a bailiff cannot charge "multiple charging for enforcing more that one Liability Order.

 

Anthony Culligan v Marston Group Ltd: This is a simply stunning Judgment which related once again to a dispute regarding legal fees charged by Marston Group. The Judgment handed down by District Judge Avent is by far the clearest and most easily understood Judgment and details in clear language the fees that can be charged by a bailiff when enforcing an unpaid parking charge notice. Of vital importance this Judgment confirms that a bailiff cannot charge a fee for clamping a car.

 

There are other Judgments that will be included as well and I will be updating this thread with details over the Xmas holiday period.

 

If anyone has any suggestions etc these would be most welcome.

Well I think a "casebook" would useful for people.

 

Thanks tt.

This is an excellent idea. I suggest that the list be divided into two sections, namely binding judgements from the Higher Courts and those from the lower courts that are merely persuasive.

Thank you Lamma I will bear this in mind.

Very useful, cases and judgments at a glance, ideal when formulating advice and a response to a particular situation for a Cagger in need.

Personally & thinking of "Stickies" overall I would like to see some of the old ones return and possibly have others brought up to date, shall ask to see if there is a mechanism for this.

Ploddertom,

 

The stickies were all changed when the Consultation Paper was released. They all need to be removed and updated. I will be offering to do this as well over the Christmas period. I will be adding a sticky with details of the bailiff fee and how to calculate them.

Be interested to see as there is a plan afoot

Stickies will be dusted off, renewed and updated very soon hopefully by the new year.
