Worsley v Tambrands Ltd: CA 3 Dec 1999

The claimant sought damages following injury after the use of tampons. The matters were all defended. The judge, in an attempt to restrict the costs, agreed to hear a preliminary issue as to the adequacy of the warnings given.
Held: Such decisions should only be interfered with where clearly wrong, but in this case, the issues could not be taken out of order, and the issue of causation was not settled.
