NLJ this week: Family law brief with latest in jurisdiction, private equity interests, publicity restrictions, and more

196081

In their first ‘Family law brief’, a regular NLJ quarterly update on judgments in the Family Court, Ellie Hampson-Jones and Carla Ditz, both senior associates at Stewarts Law, take a look at recent caselaw in four key areas—jurisdiction; publicity/privacy; the importance of financial dispute resolution hearings; and the treatment of private equity interests

The authors write: ‘In keeping with the President of the Family Division’s stated objective to “open up” the Family Court and explain its workings and decisions, the judiciary continues to publish judgments at a keen pace. Here we explore recent, published judgments relating to family law matters and highlight those of particular interest’.
