LS, R (On the Application Of) v Warrington Borough Council

LS, R (On the Application Of) v Warrington Borough Council [2024] EWHC 2872 (Admin) (12 November 2024)

The claimant's evidence, taken at its highest, raises a genuine factual dispute about her age that could succeed at trial, meeting the threshold for permission. The procedural defect in the initial claim form was serious but not fatal; relief from sanctions is granted due to prompt amendment and absence of prejudice. Interim relief is justified due to clear evidence of harm to the claimant if treated as an adult, outweighing any prejudice to the defendant.

  • Age assessment
  • Judicial review procedure
  • Interim relief
  • Children act 1989
  • Procedural impropriety
  • Relief from sanctions
