Late last year, a disclosure working group chaired by Lady Justice Gloster published proposals for disclosure reform, including a completely new rule to govern the disclosure of documents in English litigation. The proposals are subject to consultation until the end of February, following which there is likely to be a two-year pilot in the Business and Property Courts.
Julian Copeman and Maura McIntosh have published an article in the January/February 2018 edition of PLC Magazine in which they discuss the proposals and consider how likely they are to result in real change. Click here to download a copy.
