This week, Gold alerts readers to an interesting contracts case concerning the reasonableness of an exclusion clause. In this case, the contract’s ‘enforceability partly depended on whether or not the parties were of equal bargaining power… Though they might be of equal bargaining strength as regards price, that did not mean they were of equal bargaining strength in respect of terms.’
Gold also highlights upcoming vacancies for judges, an error rectified in the fee remission scheme, and ‘impressive compensation awards’ courtesy of the housing ombudsman.
