The fate of a single joint expert, an attempt to relieve the pressure on employment tribunals, and the secrecy of judgment debtors occupy the mind of DDJ Stephen Gold in his Civil Way column this week

Gold looks at a recent case in which an expert was sent on his way, and highlights provisions in force from 8 October in the employment tribunal. He covers a recent case in which a debtor sought to keep his financial affairs out of the public eye, and strikes a note of caution to lawyers who become ‘over creative’.

Be civil, read Gold, here.
