Having a bawl

Bingham, T

Having a bawl - 2002 - Building 267(8240) 5 July 2002, 46-47(2) .

Looks at whether a party can be dragged into adjudication where a construction contract was signed before the Housing Grants Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 came into force. Examines "Earls Terrace Properties Ltd v Waterloo Investments Ltd" (2002) in which the original construction contract pre-dated the current adjudication rules coming into force but a deed of variation was executed after the rules came into force. The judge ruled that the adjudicator had no jurisdiction.
