In this week’s Civil Way, former District Judge Stephen Gold covers cinema lessees’ attempts to avoid liability for rent during lockdown, and joint advice for divorcing couples―’a “one lawyer, two clients” model for couples who have agreed to make full disclosure’

Gold does some number-crunching, for example, the number of adults who entered a breathing space moratorium under the debt respite scheme, and the number of unregistered placements for children deprived of their liberty.

From numbers, Gold moves to finances, looking in detail at a case where costs were refused.
