Barring Order in UK Law

Leading Cases
  • TC03768: BPP University College of Professional Studies
    • First-tier Tribunal (Tax Chamber)
    • 01 Julio 2014

    [60]Here, in contrast, no sanction has as yet been applied to HMRC. HMRC is in breach of the January directions but it has not been barred or had any other sanction applied. HMRC are not applying for relief from sanction. On the contrary, it is the appellant's application that the Tribunal bar HMRC out for breach of a rule 8(3)(a) unless order. The question for me is whether I ought to apply the sanction of barring.

    [65]I conclude that in considering whether to grant the appellant's application to bar HMRC from further participation in this appeal I must consider all relevant factors. I will include in my consideration factors (a) and (b) from CPR 3.9 and accord them significant weight as part of my consideration of the overriding objective to deal with cases fairly and justly.

    [73]There is very clear prejudice to the appellant in not knowing HMRC's case. Litigation is not to be conducted by ambush. The appellant has the right to be put in the position so that it can properly prepare its case: it needs to know HMRC's case not only before it gets to the hearing but before it prepares its witness statements and really before it prepares its list of documents.

  • Woodhouse v Consignia Plc; Steliou v Compton
    • Court of Appeal (Civil Division)
    • 07 Marzo 2002

    The rationale for the rule in Henderson v Henderson [1843] 3 Hare 100 that, in the absence of special circumstances, parties should bring their whole case before the court so that all aspects of it may be decided (subject to appeal) once and for all, is a rule of public policy based on the desirability, in the general interest as well as that of the parties themselves, that litigation should not drag on for ever, and that a defendant should not be oppressed by successive suits when one would do: see per Sir Thomas Bingham MR in Barrow v Bankside Ltd [1996] 1 WLR 257, 260A-D.

    In those circumstances, the overriding objective of dealing with cases justly, having regard to the various factors mentioned in CPR 1.1(2), would surely demand that the second application should succeed, and that the proceedings be disposed of summarily. The judge would, of course be perfectly entitled to dismiss the second application without ceremony unless it could be speedily and categorically demonstrated that the new material was indeed conclusive of the case.

  • Momson v Azeez
    • Court of Appeal (Civil Division)
    • 18 Marzo 2009

    Since Mr Azeez was out of time for complying with Judge Cowell's “unless” order, Judge Marshall treated his application as one for relief from the debarring sanction it imposed. Having heard his representations, Judge Marshall gave her reasons for refusing to grant any relief. To do so would involve adjourning the trial and there was no excuse for Mr Azeez's failure to comply with the consent and “unless” orders. The fact of his bankruptcy played no part in her reasoning.

  • BPP Holdings Ltd v Revenue and Customs Commissioners
    • Supreme Court
    • 26 Julio 2017

    It is not for this Court to interfere with the guidance given by the UT and the Court of Appeal as to the proper approach to be adopted by the Ft-T in relation to the lifting or imposing of sanctions for failure to comply with time limits (save in the very unlikely event of such guidance being wrong in law). In a nutshell, the cases on time-limits and sanctions in the CPR do not apply directly, but the Tribunals should generally follow a similar approach.
