Invitation: ‘Contempt of Court In Commercial Disputes’ Breakfast Seminar

We are delighted to invite you to our ‘Contempt of Court In Commercial Disputes’ Breakfast Seminar on Thursday, 7th November at The Reform Club, London.

You are invited to join Outer Temple Chambers for a breakfast seminar focusing on contempt of court in commercial disputes in the Business and Property Courts.

With the Law Commission Consultation Paper closing on 29 November 2024, high profile committals of Soophia Khan, Graham Darby and Tommy Robinson, and near-misses for Katie Price and Oleg Deripaska, contempt of court is an essential part of a commercial litigator’s toolkit.

Members of Outer Temple’s commercial and business crime teams together with guest speakers will discuss a range of contempt matters across three panels:

• Panel One – ‘Caselaw roundup’, by Jeremy Scott-Joynt and Charlotte Elves of Outer Temple Chambers.
• Panel Two – ‘How to lose a contempt application in 10 ways’, by Helen Pugh and Michael Uberoi of Outer Temple Chambers alongside Alexandra Underwood of Fieldfisher and Miten Vaghela of Greenberg Traurig, Chaired by Fiona Horlick KC of Outer Temple Chambers.
• Panel Three – ‘Beyond contempt: The path to reform’, by Joshua Hitchens of Outer Temple Chambers and Marc Livingston of Janes Solicitors, Chaired by James Counsell KC of Outer Temple Chambers.

The Outer Temple Team have appeared in many of the leading contempt of court cases in the last 12 months. This is therefore an event not to miss.
