Cases

Mireskandari v Associated Newspapers Ltd (No 2)

Held

Ordering disclosure and dismissing C's appeal:

(1) C having conceded that an Order should be made, the Judge made the Order in the terms sought by D and went on to state that it was perfectly clear that C's disclosure was defective and ordered that C serve a further witness statement explaining, in as much detail as he can, how it came about that in December 2009 he said that the defendant was not entitled to the relief which it sought and on the day of the application supplied a witness statement in which it was conceded that the defendant was so entitled.

(2) Contrary to the submissions of C, the Master did have regard to C's privacy rights and incorporated protection for them within her Order. The Master made no error of law and was entitled in her exercise of discretion to make the Order that she did.
