Hayden v Charlton
[2010] EWHC 3144 (QB)
Key Principle
Persistent failure by a claimant to comply with case-management timetables and court orders in a libel action, including failing to notify the defendants of a variation order, can justify striking out the claim, and the status of the parties as litigants in person does not excuse such non-compliance.
