Poonam Pattni In Successful High Court Action

Published on 28/03/2023

The High Court has granted permission to proceed in a judicial review which concerns the dual role of the defendant authority as both the landowner of the application site and local planning authority.

On 23rd March 2023 at a reconsideration permission hearing, Ms Pattni for the Claimant Enterprise Hangars Ltd persuaded Mrs Justice Lieven that s.31(3C) of the Senior Courts Act 1981 should not be a bar to the matter proceeding because the outcome of the judicial review was relevant to the overall planing balance.

The matter will be heard later this year.
