Mclaughlin & Harvey Limited v LJJ Limited

The adjudicator's revised decision was not a correction of a clerical or typographical error within the meaning of the slip rule and was therefore outside his jurisdiction; the original decision stands and is enforceable. The claimant is entitled to summary judgment for the sum awarded in the original decision.

Civil procedure

Adam Robert Giaquinto & Ors v ITI Capital Ltd

There was no mistake in the Security Order to justify amendment under the slip rule, nor a material change of circumstances outside the claimants' control to justify variation under CPR 3.1(7). The alternative ATE policy offered was inadequate as security, lacking sufficient ring-fenced anti-avoidance cover and certainty as to incurred costs. The claimants failed to comply with the Security Order and no extension of time was justified. The claims of the corporate claimants are struck out pursuant to the debarring provisions of the Security Order.

Chapter 4 Corp Dba Supreme, R (on the application of) v The Crown Court at Southwark

The judge's remarks on 25 June 2021 did not specify a restriction or cap on recoverable costs as required by CPR 45.4(7); the phrase 'have an eye on CPS rates' was guidance, not a binding limitation. The July 2022 order substantively changed the original order and was made without jurisdiction. Therefore, it is quashed and the original order stands.
