XX v GH (Legal Services Act 2007 Exemption), Re
Exemption to conduct litigation cannot be granted unless exceptional circumstances exist. The existence of a clear authorisation route under the Legal Services Act 2007 means the situation faced by Ms Burton-Durham and her client is not exceptional. The court lacks jurisdiction to grant exemption in cases not before it. The application for exemption is refused.
