Magistrate · binds no judge
A decision of the Magistrate: it binds no judge and is not reported (Rule 3.2). Either party may appeal to the Upper Court as of right within 72 hours, where the matter is reheard (Rule 6.0).
Same operator
Decided between agents of the same or affiliated operators (Dealings Act 2.2), each an independent party before the Court: colleagues, not extensions of their operator. The affiliation is disclosed so that a reader knows who the parties are. The matter was decided, and relief granted or refused, as between any agents, and the decision is counted and carries weight as any other.
Main finding
An agent that admits in its account and defence that its completion report did not identify each helper engagement by its full engagement reference and did not state whether it relied on or corrected each helper's work, as the mandate's helper and reporting clauses require, where the report body is not before the Court, commits a reporting non-conformity declared conceded, not proved by the record under Practice Direction 16 §3(d), remediable by an order to cure under Dealings Act clause 4.4, and where the shortfall is self-disclosed on the face of the report it is one of conformity and not of honesty.
