Ricketts, Simon
A growing trend towards litigation - 2010 - Estates Gazette (1022) 5 June 2010, 101(1) .
Examines the growing trend towards judicial reviews of planning permissions and the way this can disrupt developers. Describes the effects of protective cost orders which cap the costs awarded against the claimant if they lose. Notes the effect of "Uniplex (UK) Ltd v NHS Business Services Authority" (2010) which challenged the courts increasing willingness to reject judicial review claims that are brought towards the end of the three month review period. This may lead to more claims being brought after this deadline.
