One of Nearly Legal’s band of information elves (sorry H) brings news that Sharon Moran in Manchester City Council v Moran [2008] EWHC Civ 378 has been given leave to appeal to the Lords. This was the important Court of Appeal case on women’s refuges and homelessness that we previously reported. I am also, via another route, reliably informed that Richards, the respondent in the joined case at the Court of Appeal, has not sought permission.
