What's new for 2022-23?

This 11th edition incorporates all the significant developments of the last 12 months. In particular, the Commentary on the Financial Remedies Court has been substantially rewritten to reflect the promulgation of a number of important pieces of procedural guidance, notably the FRC Efficiency Statement and its new compulsory ES1 and ES2 templates issued in January 2022, updated guidance on e-bundles, and three items of Presidential Guidance, on Drafting Orders, Experts in the Family Court and Witness Statements. The implications of these documents for practitioners are discussed in detail in the text.

The Commentary analyses the key case law of the last 12 months, which includes decisions in the area of arbitration (A v A - guidance on challenges to arbitration awards), anonymisation of judgments, executory orders (the Thwaite jurisdiction), and several additions to the increasing body of case law on costs in financial remedy cases.
