JSC Mezhdunarodniy Promyshlenniy Bank and another v Pugachev and others, [2017] EWHC 1936 (Ch), [2017] All ER (D) 41 (Aug)

The Chancery Division held that no order joining J, who was the ex-wife of the son of the first defendant, or her children would be made, in proceedings involving an order for sale of a property, although directions for evidence would be made whereby the application could be relisted and supported by evidence. While J’s solicitors would be given notice if the property was sold, there was no proper basis on which the court should even facilitate the possibility that the applicants should have the ability to interfere with that sale.

Assisted dying remains one of the most fraught fault lines in English law, where compassion and criminal liability sit uncomfortably close. Writing in NLJ this week, Julie Gowland and Barny Croft of Birketts examine how acts motivated by care—booking travel, completing paperwork, or offering emotional support—can still fall within the wide reach of the Suicide Act 1961
