The parties settled an immigration appeal in the last days before the date set for the hearing.
Held: Parties should bear in mind the new Court of Appeal rules requiring documents to be lodged early, and for settlements to be agreed if possible early so that listing slots should not be lost. Representatives can expect to be called to appear in person before the court to explain themselves and to be penalised in costs for breaches of the rules.
