Is it murder on the statute book this week or a reprieve for certain property owners, in former District Judge Stephen Gold’s Civil way column?
Gold writes: ‘Company landlords can relax as a technical defence is killed off.’ Moving from property to pensions, Gold recounts a case where creditors tried to seize a bankrupt debtor’s pension. On family matters, he explains how related a relative must be to be a protected child under domestic abuse legislation. He also provides extensive cover of financial remedies.
