Adminstrative Law Update - Unreasonableness
The document summarizes recent cases related to the legal concept of unreasonableness in administrative decision making. It discusses Minister for Immigration and Citizenship v Li, a rare case where a decision was invalidated solely on the grounds of unreasonableness. The document outlines key principles from the case, including that decisions must have an evident and intelligible justification. It also summarizes other recent cases and implications for decision makers, advising them to ensure decisions are reasonable and proportionate given the applicable statutory provisions.
Judicial review 3
This document discusses the grounds for judicial review based on procedural impropriety, specifically breach of express statutory requirements and breach of fair procedure. It notes two subcategories of breach of fair procedure - the rule against bias, and the right to a fair hearing. The right to a fair hearing includes the rights to know the case against you, have sufficient time to prepare, and exceptions related to public interest and national security. The document also discusses proportionality in judicial review and the effect of the Human Rights Act of 1998.
What is Judicial Review Sprott Lab Rels June 16 2012
Judicial review allows courts to review administrative decisions like arbitration awards to ensure they were made correctly according to the proper legal process and standards. The court examines the entire decision making process but does not redecide the case merits. Grounds for judicial review include procedural errors, errors of fact or law, and decisions found to be unreasonable. Remedies can include quashing the decision or remitting it back for a rehearing.
Employee contract agreement
This document provides an overview of employment agreements in Ontario. It begins by defining who qualifies as an employee under Ontario law and how employees differ from independent contractors. It notes that employment agreements are used to clarify the employment relationship and address issues like termination and restrictive covenants that may arise. The document then gives 10 tips for drafting employment agreements, stressing the importance of putting terms in writing, making agreements clear, certain and complete, avoiding traps, and considering general contract principles.
JUDICIAL REVIEW OF ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION IN PAKISTAN
1) The need for and rationale of judicial review to prevent executive overreach and ensure administrative decisions are not arbitrary.
2) The jurisdictional principles that govern judicial review, particularly the doctrine of ultra vires which holds that administrative acts beyond an agency's legal powers are void.
3) The modes of judicial review exercised by courts in Pakistan, including public law review through writ petitions and private law review through suits/injunctions. Natural justice and its principles like nemo iudex in causa sua are also reviewed.
Judicial review
Judicial review refers to the process by which courts exercise control over the findings and interpretations of governmental agencies. It is not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution but was established in Marbury v. Madison. Judicial review allows courts to determine the meaning of legislation and invalidate unconstitutional statutes. It provides guidance to agencies and acts as a check on administrative overreach. There are two major aspects - access to review, governed by concepts like ripeness, standing, and mootness, and the scope of review, regarding how much deference courts give to agency actions.
State of the Word 2011
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for both physical and mental health. It notes that regular exercise can reduce the risk of diseases like heart disease and diabetes, improve mood, and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. The document recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise per week to gain these benefits.
Robert Hunt
Robert Hunt presented on the rise of expert determination as an alternative to arbitration. He discussed key differences between the two processes, with expert determination being less formal and allowing the expert to use their expertise to make determinations, unlike arbitrators. Expert determination can provide substantial savings in time and costs compared to arbitration. However, it does not allow for discovery of documents and subpoenas, and determinations must be enforced through courts. While anecdotally popular as part of tiered dispute resolution processes, data from one organization showed slightly more requests for arbitration than expert determination.

Adjudication Enforcement: Time for a change?
This interactive session looked at developments in adjudication enforcement decisions, including a panel discussion / debate on:
- Adjudication generally
- The implications of the Human Rights Act
6a. david browne aarhus convention seminar (14 july 2018)
This document summarizes a seminar on standing requirements in environmental law following the Supreme Court's decision in Grace & Sweetman. It discusses how standing has been interpreted under Irish law, EU law, and the Aarhus Convention. Key points include: the Supreme Court found failure to participate is not an automatic bar to standing but may be a factor; a sufficient proximity and impact test applies; and proposed legislation may change standing rules but must still comply with principles of wide access to justice and effective judicial protection under EU law.
July 2015 Trademark Update
July’s practice group lunch included an overview of recent news from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and decisions from the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB). The USPTO continues to revise its manuals for trademark practice (TMEP and TBMP) on a rolling basis, and has issued new rules and guidance on certain specific types of trademarks, such as collective marks and repeating patterns. The TTAB has decided that it will presume that, between a manufacture and an exclusive distributor, the manufacture owns the mark, subject to rebuttal (UVeritech v. Amax Lighting). Another TTAB case addresses the interaction between the courts and the USPTO, where the TTAB refused to vacate a decision even though the parties later settled the case while on appeal (University of Alabama v. Pitts).
Aarhus in scotland
This document summarizes key aspects of environmental rights in Scotland under the Aarhus Convention, including rights to environmental information, public participation, and access to justice. It notes that while international law is not directly binding, the EU has implemented parts of Aarhus. The main problem is access to environmental justice due to costs. Protective expenses orders and legal aid issues pose challenges. Time limits for judicial review may also hinder groups. Solutions could include increased funding and resources for all involved.

Sanatana Resources Corporate Presentation
Sanatana Resources Inc. presented an investor presentation on their Watershed property which surrounds IAMGOLD's Côté Gold project. Sanatana has explored the property extensively through drilling and geophysics, intercepting gold mineralization along strike from Côté. IAMGOLD has applied for easements over Sanatana claims, likely to incorporate the mineralization into an expanded mine plan, but Sanatana is defending its property rights. Sanatana sees value in potentially being acquired by IAMGOLD to consolidate the deposits and optimize the project.

Running twice a year, and covering a range of different topics each time, these 60 minute sessions offer a stimulating and concise way to plan for what’s ahead, exchange ideas on best practice and network with peers and colleagues.
Open Policy Making Conference Red Tape Challenge Slides
The Red Tape Challenge aimed to reduce regulation on businesses by examining the existing UK regulation stock and soliciting public input to identify reforms. Over 5,600 regulations were reviewed, with 3,100 scrapped or improved, estimated to save businesses over £800 million per year. External challenges and evidence helped drive changes counter to departments' preferences. While largely successful, challenges included the volume of regulations, ensuring reforms were fully implemented, and demonstrating successes against ongoing new regulations. Lessons included targeting future reviews and improving feedback for public input.
Fast track arbitration
Fast-track arbitration is a procedure that compresses a full arbitration into a finite time period, similar to fast-tracking a construction project. It requires cooperation between the parties, counsel, and arbitrator. Complex construction cases can be arbitrated in 100 days with established rules in the UK and US. For fast-track arbitration to work, the parties must be equally committed and able to dedicate resources over a compressed 4-6 month period. Experienced lawyers must make strategic decisions quickly and the arbitrator must balance efficiency with fairness.
UK Adjudicators May 2020 newsletter
The document discusses two recent UK legal cases related to construction adjudication and expert witnesses. In the first case, the TCC refused to grant an injunction to stop an adjudication from proceeding due to challenges presented by the coronavirus pandemic. In the second case, the TCC ruled that an expert witness firm owed a fiduciary duty of loyalty to a client, preventing it from taking expert roles adverse to that client on related matters. This second ruling could significantly impact expert witness firms by restricting their ability to take new expert assignments.
Towards diminishing judicial intervention in statutory adjudication a pragmatic
Towards diminishing judicial intervention in statutory adjudication a pragmaticSamer Skaik, BEng, MSc (W/D), MIEAust, PMP, ACIArb
This document discusses challenges to statutory adjudication in the construction industry and proposes measures to diminish judicial intervention. It finds that as payment claims increase in size, so too does the proportion of determinations challenged through judicial review. Larger claims are more likely to involve complex issues that parties seek to dispute in court. However, extensive litigation undermines the objective of facilitating cash flow. The document examines current approaches used by courts to limit review and proposes that courts adopt a broad view of jurisdictional facts, and allow adjudicators to correct defects upon remittal rather than quashing entire determinations. It argues these pragmatic measures can better balance parties' rights with the legislation's purpose of resolving disputes quickly and inexpensively.A Guide to Effective Arbitration Advocacy from Three Florida Arbitrators

Offers of compromise and “calderbank” offers in civil litigation andrew downie
This document discusses offers of compromise and "Calderbank" offers in civil litigation. It provides an overview of the purpose and history of settlement offers, the key points of offers of compromise under state and federal court rules, differences between court levels, and differences between offers of compromise and "Calderbank" offers. Recent case examples are also summarized.
Natalie bodek
The document discusses the UK government's efforts to reduce regulatory burdens on businesses through programs like the Red Tape Challenge and One-In, Two-Out policy. The Red Tape Challenge identified existing regulations and solicited public feedback to eliminate unnecessary or outdated rules. Regulations were grouped into themes and challenges through a multi-step review process involving government agencies and external stakeholders. Successful reforms delivered included increased flexibility for company auditing and clearer contaminated land guidance. Lessons learned included the challenge of reviewing an entire statute book and ensuring changes are communicated and implemented.
Mental health, capacity and deprivation of liberty case law update, February ...
Rebecca Fitzpatrick looks at some of the most recent leading cases in relation to the Mental Health Act and Deprivation of Liberty, including the Supreme Court’s important decisions of 'MM' and 'PJ' which consider the interaction between the Mental Health Act and deprivation of liberty in the community. Rebecca also covered the subsequent case of 'AB' which focuses on the role of the High Court’s inherent jurisdiction in these types of cases, and the recent final report from the Mental Health Act independent review chaired by Professor Sir Simon Wessely.
Public sector breakfast club, Exeter - July 2016
Lynne and Jen take you through some recent developments in case law affecting commercial contracts and procurement, dealing with:
• whether a written contract can in fact still be varied orally
• whether information held by a local authority should be subject to disclosure under a FOIA request
• the new test for penalty clauses
• the first case considering a challenge involving the NHS Procurement Regulations
• the first case resulting in the issue of an ineffectiveness order against a public contract in the UK.

UK Adjudicators February 2020 newsletter
This newsletter summarizes upcoming adjudication and arbitration conferences in Edinburgh, London, and Cape Town. It also provides details on enforcing an adjudicator's decision in Northern Ireland. The key enforcement steps include issuing a writ of summons in the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court of Justice in Northern Ireland and applying for summary judgment. Recent Northern Irish court decisions generally support the enforcement of adjudicator's decisions in line with promoting cash flow in the construction industry.
Government Grants and Patent Rights
In this month's episode, we’re talking about the use of government grants and the strings that can come attached to your IP! We’re exploring the various types of small business research grants, how the Bayh-Dole Act regulates inventions generated under government grants, licensing and ownership implications for your patent when using federal dollars, and the sticky webs that you may find yourself in if you are not carefully tracking IP and adhering to the numerous provisions and timelines.
Dr. Ashley Sloat, President and Director of Patent Strategy here at Aurora, leads the discussion along with our all-star patent panel, exploring:
⦿ How the Bye-Dole Act of 1980 regulates inventions under government grants
⦿ As a small business, what types of grants are available to you and whether or not they can cover IP-related costs
⦿ The rights of the federal government to your Invention when you use grant money
⦿ Implications for using subcontractors to perform the work under the grant
⦿ And of course, some of the biggest gotcha’s and practical tips for avoiding them
Ashley is also joined today by our always exceptional group of IP experts including:

Flood Management Case Law Review
This article summarises recent Scottish and English case law discussed in a presentation given by Robert Sutherland on 3 February 2015 at Sniffer's 10th Annual Flood Risk Management Conference. The presentation looked at issues connected to flood management in the context of planning law, reservoir repairs, damages claims arising from flooding incidents, and applications to the courts for Protective Expenses Orders. The presentation also considered the application of Freedom of Information legislation to public authorities concerned with flooding issues by looking at references to the Scottish Information Commissioner over the past ten years.
Ownerless land and common good land
This document discusses ownerless land and common good land in Scotland. It defines ownerless land as property without a known owner, such as from a dissolved company or where no heir can be found. Common good land is land owned by a local authority for public benefit. The document outlines the legal framework around disposing of both types of land and challenges in modernizing protections for common good land, including developing an exhaustive register, addressing local authority conflicts of interest, and balancing policy goals.
