In K v L Ltd and R Richard Adkinson, acting for the Claimant,
successfully persuaded a court to rescind a transfer of a house from
the Claimant to the First Defendant made over 8 years previously.
After a trial lasting 4 days, the court found the transaction had been
induced by the Second Defendant's undue influence or precured through
fraud.
The case was further complicated by the fact that in the meantime the
First Defendant company had been struck off and so had to be restored
to the register of companies before proceedings could commence and by
considerations of constructive trusts and limitation issues.
R v Noon.
Paul Prior successfully represented a 33 year old man in an expedited
appeal against sentence to the Court of Appeal. The index offence was
Cultivation of Cannabis. The appeal lay on two primary grounds - that
R v Herridge (2006) 1 Cr App R (S) 252 was distinguishable and
that insufficient weight had been given to the Appellant's medical
condition at sentence. The Court distinguished Herridge,
quashed the custodial sentence and imposed a Community Order.
