The parties had settled a previous dispute with a Tomlin order including the clause: ‘Mr Roberts accepts the above terms in full and final satisfaction of his claims in the said action number 1OL90045 and of any claim or potential claim which he has or may have up to the date hereof against GMP, or any of his officers or employees howsoever arising under statute, common law or otherwise.’ The claimant now sought leave to appeal against rejection of a further claim in respect of data held by the police on him.
Held: Leave was refused. The clause was indeed wide, but clearly incorporated the facts now complained of. An appeal was bound to fail.
