Family Law

Re G (a child)(order: restriction on applications) [2008] EWCA Civ 1468; [2009] All ER (D) 60 (Jan)

An order under s 91 of the Children Act 1989 restraining the parties from making any further applications to the court in respect of the child in question, is a remedy to be used sparingly as the exception rather than the rule, ordinarily to restrain repeated and unreasonable applications. Moreover, the court needs to find facts going beyond the commonly encountered need for a time to settle to the regime which has been ordered.
