There’s pure Gold on show in this week’s Civil way, as former district judge turned NLJ columnist Stephen Gold unravels the latest legal knots

Up this week, an unfortunate case in which litigants in person relied on mistranslated Latin, as well as more CPR detail on experts’ reports and on disclosure, costs, recoverability of fees, the fast track and intermediate track.

Gold also covers the express right to file a reply to the acknowledgement of service in judicial reviews. He provides an update on the inclusion of penal notices at the front of orders—a CPR amendment has reversed a 2022 Chancery Division decision on the matter. On top of all this, Gravesend ‘has gone’.
