COMMERCIAL
Judgment scheduledCase summary:Whether the current test for an account of profits (where a fiduciary has to pay back money earned due to a breach of a duty) should be changed to introduce a requirement that the fiduciary could not have made the same profit in a way that avoided a breach of duty, i.e. to introduce a test that asks: ‘Could the same profit have been made but for the breach of fiduciary duty’?

Permission to Appeal application lodgedCase summary:Did the Court of Appeal err: (i) in concluding that the appellant’s claim under article 3 ECHR, although beyond the temporal scope of the Human Rights Act 1998, did not satisfy the ‘Convention values’ test? (ii) in not applying its findings and those of the court below in respect of article 14 ECHR and, separately, the Windsor Framework to the appellant’s case? Alternatively, does the common law prohibition of torture act as a limit upon the sovereignty of Parliament?

PUBLIC LAW AND HUMAN RIGHTS
Awaiting JudgmentCase summary:This appeal concerns a claim for bereavement support payment (“BSP”). BSP is a non-means-tested contributory benefit, the purpose of which is to assist with the additional expenditure typically associated with bereavement. Under sections 30-31 of the Pensions Act 2014 (the “2014 Act”), a person is entitled to BSP if (among other things) their spouse dies and, for at least one tax year during the deceased’s working life, he or she paid national insurance contributions (“NICs”) (the “Contribution Condition”). The issues raised by this appeal concern: (i) the circumstances in which courts in England and Wales may depart from decisions of appellate courts in Northern Ireland and Scotland regarding the same or substantially similar legislation; (ii) whether the inability to work during one’s lifetime as a result of a disability constitutes an “other status” for the purposes of Article 14 of the Convention; (iii) whether the policy behind the Contribution Condition justifies interference with Convention rights; and (iv) whether the CA was wrong in this case to have awarded the respondent an interpretive remedy under section 3 of the Human Rights Act 1998 (the “HRA”), rather than making a declaration of incompatibility under section 4 of the HRA.

Permission to Appeal application lodgedCase summary:Did the Court of Appeal err in finding that whether an appeal to the First-tier Tribunal is bound to fail is irrelevant to whether the timing of the appeal complies with the 14-day time limit for appealing a decision of the Secretary of State for the Home Department in circumstances where the Secretary of State’s notice of decision failed to advise the appellant of their right of appeal?
