Gazi v McKenzie [2024] EWHC 2103 (Ch) What are the practical implications of this case? Executors frequently become embroiled in wrangles between competing beneficiaries concerning the deceased’s assets, the rights to them, and their distribution. Yet, as this judgment demonstrates, the dispute can swiftly swell far beyond the real monetary value at issue. In such circumstances executors must take great care, especially when legal expenses start to mount while attempting to resolve the problem and complete the estate’s administration. The law provides several avenues to shield executors in scenarios like this; the appropriate safeguard will ultimately depend on the particular questions that arise and on the respective positions of the parties. Proportionality therefore matters, and unchecked contention risks eclipsing the estate’s limited stakes and rapidly depleting resources through avoidable expenditure. Although executors may view the situation as straightforward, the legal landscape is complex; the accepted starting point is the categorisation, and the differing costs regimes, set out in Alsop Wilkinson v Neary [1996] 1 WLR 1220. Where the matter...

This Practice Note examines the enforcement of standard security over heritable property in Scotland. Legal framework The regime governing enforcement of standard securities sits in, and is derived from, Part II of the Conveyancing and Feudal Reform (Scotland) Act 1970 (CFR(S)A 1970). The statutory framework originally set out in the CFR(S)A 1970 has been significantly modified for securities over properties used for residential purposes, principally by the following: Mortgage Rights (Scotland) Act 2001, and Home Owner and Debtor Protection (Scotland) Act 2010 When considering enforcement of any standard security, the reference point is the security instrument itself and, in particular, the operation and application of the ‘Standard Conditions’ contained in CFR(S)A 1970, Sch 3. From an enforcement standpoint, normally the key Standard Conditions to note in practice are: Standard Condition 9—which defines the circumstances in which a debtor is to be treated as being in default, and Standard Condition 10—which describes the creditor’s suite of rights once...

The general position of the bankruptcy and family courts The interaction between bankruptcy and divorce has been examined in numerous judgments across both the bankruptcy and family courts. Regrettably, it is not unusual for a bankruptcy to be underway while divorce proceedings continue, and parallel actions can give rise to disputes over the distribution of assets. The point at which a bankruptcy petition is presented, when contrasted with the time the family court issues a property adjustment order, is pivotal in determining how bankruptcy proceedings will affect the family case.
