About the Event
Join 39 Essex Chambers barristers Scarlett Milligan and Celia Reynolds for a lunchtime discussion on the latest word from the UK Supreme Court on public authority liability in negligence and, in particular, the application of those principles to the acts and omissions of police officers.
The judgment gives important guidance on the tricky area of tortious liability for omissions. What is the difference between assuming responsibility for a danger and failing to improve a dangerous situation? When does an omission become a positive act? What is the intervener principle and what does it mean for your claims?
Scarlett and Celia will answer all these questions and give you comprehensive guidance on navigating these claims and avoiding common pitfalls.
There will also be an opportunity for questions and discussion. Questions can be sent using Zoom’s Q&A function.
