LtCol Ian Foxley v Ministry of Defence & Ors

The summary judgment and jurisdiction applications must be adjourned because the PII and confidentiality applications consumed almost two days, leaving insufficient time for the complex factual and legal issues raised. All parties ultimately agreed adjournment was inevitable. The applications require a wide-ranging inquiry and cannot be fairly or realistically heard within the remaining time. Adjournment is consistent with the overriding objective and interests of justice.
