R (on the application of the Master Fellows and Scholars of College of Saint John the Evangelist in the University of Cambridge) v Cambridgeshire County Council [2017] EWHC 1753 (Admin), [2017] All ER (D) 96 (Jul)

There was nothing in the language of reg 5(4) of the Commons (Registration of Town or Village Greens) (Interim Arrangements) (England) Regulations 2007 (SI 2007/457), to suggest that an applicant for registration of land as a town or village green could be afforded only one opportunity to remedy a not duly made application. Accordingly, the Planning Court dismissed the claimant’s application for judicial review of the defendant commons registration authority’s decision, giving the interested party a further opportunity to take action to put his application in order.
