BUNDLES: CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE: CORE BUNDLE OF EVIDENCE DRAWS THANKS FROM THE TRIAL JUDGE

Most of the posts on bundles on this blog have been judges complaining about their quality or quantity.  It is worthwhile looking at the observations of Mr Justice Martin Spencer today in Lesforis v Tolias [2018] EWHC 1225 (QB) (of which more later).

CORE BUNDLE OF MEDICAL EVIDENCE

  1. Finally, may I pay tribute to the Claimant’s solicitors for the way in which the trial bundles were prepared, and in particular for the reduction of the medical records to a core bundle in a single lever arch file: although the full medical records comprising 5 lever arch files were made available, it did not become necessary at any stage to go beyond the core bundle. This made the task of the court significantly easier, for which I am grateful.”
