British citizenship status: deprivation and nullity
Practice notes

This Practice Note discusses the powers of the Secretary of State for the Home Department (SSHD) to deprive a person of British citizenship status or to declare the status a nullity. It also covers the procedure for deprivation of citizenship, the effects it has on the subject and their family members, appeal rights and relevant case law.

A defendant has made an application to amend their defence in an EL Multi-track Claim. The claimant has made a Part 18 request for information but has not consented to the amendments. A cross-application was made by the claimant for a response to the Part 18 request and an extension of time to file a witness statement. Statements are due to be exchanged in the extended directions in two weeks’ time. The court has adjourned the hearing of both applications to an unknown date in the future. What happens in relation to witness evidence? If exchange does not occur within two weeks, will the claimant be in breach of the directions? What if the extension is refused?

Q&As

I am preparing to issue court proceedings against a GP surgery. The surgery is a partnership. The CPR suggests that in this situation the partnership should be named and referred to as a firm but other parts of the CPR suggests that each and every individual GP should be named. What is the normal protocol when suing a GP practice? Is it preferable to sue the individual GPs or the surgery or name the individual GPs and the surgery followed by a firm?
