Counsel’s duty on judge’s omissions
In re S (Omission from judgment: Duty of counsel)
Court of Appeal
“Counsel had a duty to point out to a judge any omissions in his judgment so that the matter could be dealt with there and then. It was not appropriate to rely on the alleged omission to seek leave to appeal.”
