O v Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council: Admn 9 Jul 2014

Substantive hearing in a claim for Judicial Review. The claim that is brought on behalf of C is for a Declaration that from the time she went to live with TD in 2008 C was a Looked After Child. C seeks damages in respect of unpaid financial allowances as a consequence of that declaration if made, and also the provision of services for C. The Defendant resists the claim. Its case is that C came to live with TD in 2008 as a consequence of a private family arrangement. It says that in consequence C was not a Looked after Child, and that it has met its other duties to her.
