A recent news story “Willers v Joyce: Malicious prosecution extended” (NLJ, 22 July 2016, p 4) stated that the decision in Willers v Joyce was made with a 5:2 majority when it was in fact a 5:4 majority. Also, as Mr Willers’ appeal was against a strike out it proceeded on the basis of assumed facts. The news story and related feature, “A firm foundation?” (NLJ, 29 July 2016, p 16) have been corrected to reflect this. Our apologies for any confusion.
