The Supreme Court last week swore in its two new justices. Lord Justice Hughes (pictured, top left) succeeds Lord Dyson and Lord Justice Toulson (pictured, top right) succeeds Lord Walker.
Hughes will first hear a case from Northern Ireland concerning the admissibility of electronic fingerprinting as evidence and Toulson will consider the right to a fair trial in a case from Scotland. Lady Hale remains the only woman in the 12-member court.
Public inquiry sees lawyer’s emailed instruction to ‘structure’ documents to invoke privilege.
Judicial Conduct Investigations Office says the office holder apologised at the time over ‘comments which were considered inappropriate or threatening’.
High Court also refuses amendments to claim, centred on a failed investment scheme, against another firm which ‘lacked clarity and coherence’.
