Land Injunctions

This book sets out the law and practice of protecting land ownership and rights from interference. In addition to dealing with the property law issues, the book includes a treatment of the applicable criminal law and also provides an up-to-date and comprehensive account of the special rules applicable to “Persons Unknown” injunctions, including in cases of protest.

Written by a team of practitioners from Falcon Chambers with experience in dealing with all types of land, from rural settings to infrastructure to urban development sites, this book is intended to give a step-by-step guide to the injunctions process.

The book covers:

• Rights capable of protecting land and interests in land

• The parties to injunctions, including remedies against person unknown
• Interim and final injunctions
• The terms of injunctions
• Modification and discharge of injunctions
• Human rights
• Criminal law
• Procedure
• Costs

Although the scope of the book applies to injunctions however they might arise, it also contains detailed coverage of the developing law post-Wolverhampton City Council and others v London Gypsies and Travellers and Others [2023] UKSC 47
