CRITERIA FOR APPEALS

R(IRAN) V SSHD [2005] EWCA Civ 982

​
CAWSAND FORT MANAGEMENT CO LTD V STAFFORD & OTHERS  [2005] EWCA Civ 982 
This was a renewed application for permission to appeal from a decision of the Lands Tribunal. That decision was on an appeal from an order made by the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal for the Southern Rent Assessment Panel under section 24 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1987. Applications under section 24 were made by a number of those individuals who were tenants of residential units within a group of buildings known as Cawsand Fort. The issue was whether the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal (“LVT”) went beyond its powers in purporting to appoint a manager of the whole of the property known as "The Fort".   Full report here.

SSHD V AKAEKE [2005] EWCA Civ 947
The claimant entered the country illegally not later than November 1994. She claimed to have been persecuted in Nigeria, and made a claim for asylum which was refused in December 1995. In February 1996 she married her present husband, who was a British citizen. Her application to remain on the basis of her marriage was refused in September 1996, because the marriage post-dated enforcement action. Full report here.

HINCHEY V SECRETARY OF STATE [2005] UKHL 16
The Claimant had been paid income support for many years, having suffered from irritable bowel syndrome and Disability Living Allowance in the middle category. Her award was for a limited period and expired in October 1998. She applied for a renewal but was refused, and her appeal was dismissed. However she continued to be paid DLA and was overpaid £3,555.40. The question in this appeal was whether the Secretary of State can claim the money back. He had a statutory right of recovery under section 71 of the Social Security Administration Act 1992 ("the Administration Act"):    Full report here.

NAPP PHARMACEUTICAL HOLDINGS LTD V DIRECTOR GENERAL OF FAIR TRADING [2002] EWCA Civ 796
The Claimant company had a dominant position in the drugs market for the supply of a certain drug. The Director General made a finding that it had abused its dominant position in the terms of section 18 of the Competition Act 1998 in a number of ways. He imposed various regulatory measures and imposed a penalty of £3.21 million, which was later reduced.  Napp sought permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal against both the findings of the Tribunal as to abuse and the fact and amount of the penalty.
