Professor Dominic Regan, aka The Insider, of City Law School, highlights some revealing words. He also covers another saga—that of a judge seeking promotion who came unstuck.
Regan notes the recent budgeting costs judgment in another saga in the making, the vehicles emissions litigation. He writes: ‘Given that Constable J is a keen magician, it was no surprise that he pulled off one hell of a trick by making £155m disappear from the claimant budget.’
Regan also pays tribute to the late, much-missed, Dame Jennifer Roberts.
