NLJ this week: Gold’s ‘best investment’

Writing in NLJ’s Civil Way this week, columnist DDJ Stephen Gold asks, ‘have you ever tried savaging a peanut?’

Possession, family law cases, flexible tenancy, financial remedy applications and the danger of judges sounding tense during remote hearings also pass beneath the Gold microscope.
