“BACK TOMORROW”
County court counters will be closed from 2pm instead of 4pm in the London group of courts between 16 July and 31 August 2012 so that staff can manage the workload during the busy summer leave period. The same early closure will also apply to the Family Proceedings courts at Brent, Uxbridge, Richmond, Bexley, Barnet, Croydon, Havering and Bromley. Local arrangements will be made to deal with urgent business. An announcement is imminent on consultation over permanent national counter attack (see NLJ, 3 February 2012, p 177).
DSYLEXIA OVERCOME
Credit reference agencies which get it wrong may end up paying compensation (but will hopefully avoid having to enter an adverse entry against themselves). In Smeaton v Equifax plc [2012] EWHC 2088 (QB), [2012] All ER (D) 14 (Jun) Equifax got it wrong and will have to pay.
Mr Smeaton was adjudicated bankrupt.
