NLJ this week: Snagging list, port alerts & an Abu Dhabi divorce

In this week’s Civil Way, former District Judge Stephen Gold notes the bad news that justice is taking longer, and also compiles a helpful snagging list for the new Watford county court premises. 

Alarmingly, the latter includes a ‘wonky’ lift for judiciary and staff—what if the judge gets stuck in the lift? Could this add to the cases backlog?

Gold also explains the latest on authorised costs orders and reports on the work of the non-Muslim family court in Abu Dhabi, which has prevailed over the High Court (Family) in a recent forum battle. He looks at the case in question (SA v FA), a divorce case.

For a touch of Gold, read Civil Way here.
