On tuesday Mrs Justice Slade is to hear an expedited appeal challenging an odd practice in the Southampton tribunal.Some claimants are being ordered to set out their case on one side of A4 , not easy in a whistleblower case involving 13 alleged disclosures.
Having been closely involved in case management in the High Court I would suggest the order is perverse and am frankly puzzled as to how the presiding Judge in Southampton could possibly countenance this activity.There will be cases that could be stated on a postcard but one must retain some flexibility.
