Disclosure Obligations in Civil Litigation - Update Your Knowledge

Introduction

CPR Part 31 and its Practice Direction together govern the activities required for one of the most important aspects to litigation, namely disclosure.

As a distinct phase of Court proceedings, disclosure requires the parties to complete, file, receive and review specific paperwork. In addition, the disclosure period affords the parties the opportunity to take a good look at their own case and review their opponents.

This webinar will provide the latest update and will touch on the Court cases of Duke of Sussex v MGN (concerning weight of evidence) and Dixon v North Bristol NHS Trust (concerning interplay with data protection).
