IMMIGRATION

R (F (Mongolia)) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2007] EWCA Civ 769, [2007] All ER (D) 384 (Jul)

R (G) v IAT [2004] EWCA Civ 1731, [2005] 2 All ER 165 remains binding on the Court of Appeal. A refusal by a senior immigration judge to order reconsideration of a case by a panel of the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal can therefore only be reviewed under the statutory review procedure by a High Court judge, whose decision on the review is final, and judicial review of the refusal to order reconsideration is not available.

Non-molestation orders are meant to be the frontline defence against domestic abuse, yet their enforcement often falls short. Writing in NLJ this week, Jeni Kavanagh, Jessica Mortimer and Oliver Kavanagh analyse why the criminalisation of breach has failed to deliver consistent protection
Assisted dying remains one of the most fraught fault lines in English law, where compassion and criminal liability sit uncomfortably close. Writing in NLJ this week, Julie Gowland and Barny Croft of Birketts examine how acts motivated by care—booking travel, completing paperwork, or offering emotional support—can still fall within the wide reach of the Suicide Act 1961
