Ok so now the plot thickens:o recieved another letter from Bristol court informing me that the previous order has been revoked and replaced with this one.
It is ordered that the action be stayed until the 1st Dec 06 or until further order on the basis that a test case is likely to be heard before a higher court within the next few months or so the result of which is likely to reduce and/or amount of litigation in these types of cases.
The stay will also afford both parties an opportunity to try and settle the matter without a court hearing. the parties should notify the court immediatley if the claim has been settled and provide a draft of any order the parties wish the court to make.
What happened to the cases that Judge Havelock-Allan was due to hear? This just sounds like the court copping out to me! Any ideas on what to do now?
Basically this is something that is happening a lot recently,and another case had a similar order in Bristol yesterday.
You can of course appeal against the stay.
It is correct that the Judge would hope that the interim period may bring about an out of court settlement,and in a few recent cases this has certainly shown to be the case.

Judge Havelock Allen is a QC and is officiating at my Case Management Conference in Bristol on 13th Oct (Friday). I have heard nothing about its progress, so I expect it will occur, but will probably not answer much but just make me waste the afternoon. Of course its not a waste, but a fantastic learning opportunity. Its a shame the judges appear to want to stay cases waiting for other cases that get settled early, rather than progress them to a hearing. Afterall, its the hearing that will set precedent a force a settlement. Stays just create a backlog.
