This Checklist pinpoints the principal provisions commonly found in a trade mark coexistence agreement. It may serve as a prompt for matters to address when preparing, assessing, or negotiating these arrangements. It can be relied upon as a list of points to review at drafting stage, during review, and throughout negotiations and sign-off process. It may equally be tailored as heads of terms to capture core positions whilst a full trade mark coexistence agreement is finalised. For help on doing so, see Precedent: Heads of terms—commercial contracts. For a model coexistence agreement, see Precedent: Trade mark coexistence agreement.

Use this checklist when representing the seller in the disposal of a registered freehold residential property, whether offered with vacant possession or burdened by a lease or multiple leases. It is not comprehensive and will not address every eventuality in every transaction. You should always consider if there are additional matters that require attention. It does not purport to be a complete guide for every case. Preliminary matters Have you taken instructions from the client? Robust due diligence and effective transaction management depend on a clear grasp of the seller’s objectives and the proposed sale terms. Obtain full instructions, and clarify any elements of your brief that are unclear or out of the ordinary. Consider whether further specialist input is required; for example, planning advice where completion is conditional upon planning permission being secured. The table below sets out some of the principal points on which instructions should be obtained at the outset. This list is not comprehensive, and you may need to request information about additional...

Overview This Practice Note forms part of our LLB Contract Law series for law students. It surveys the remedies for breach of contract, with damages at the heart of the common law response. Setting remedies within the framework of contract, it explains when a party may terminate—most notably for breach of conditions and of innominate (or ‘intermediate’) terms. It then sets out the expectation principle from Robinson v Harman (1848) 1 Exch 850, stressing that an award should put the claimant in the position they would have been in had performance occurred. The Note next traces the principal constraints on recovery—causation, remoteness, and the duty to mitigate—and discusses leading cases on mitigation to show how these limits operate even once breach is proved. It also considers alternative measures—expectation, reliance and, in rare cases, restitutionary recovery—before addressing quantification, including the contrast between ‘difference in value’ and ‘cost of cure’ illustrated by Ruxley Electronics v Forsyth [1996] AC 344. Finally, it deals with non-pecuniary loss and the contemporary approach to liquidated...

Recognised growth market exemption from stamp duty and SDRT The recognised growth market exemption from stamp duty and SDRT covers securities admitted to trading on a recognised growth market, provided they are not listed on any market. Although people often say AIM shares are ‘listed on AIM’ or ‘AIM listed’, they are in fact unlisted; it is therefore better to describe them as ‘AIM traded shares’ or simply ‘AIM shares’. They are classed as unlisted because they are not included in the UK official list. Under section 1005(3) of the Income Tax Act 2007 (ITA 2007), a security admitted to trading on a UK recognised stock exchange counts as ‘listed’ only if it appears on the UK official list. Furthermore, section 99A(3) of the Finance Act 1986 confirms that the meaning of ‘listed’ in ITA 2007, s 1005(3)–(5) also applies to the references to ‘listed’ within the recognised growth market exemption from stamp duty and SDRT...

During the medieval period, the manor’s lord allowed local people to occupy and farm open land on the estate in return for payment (in cash or in kind, for example tithes and corn rents) or services (ie labour or military service). Moreover, the lord of the manor also kept certain rights over the land. Such manorial rights were annexed to the lordship (ie the title ‘lord of the manor’), rather than to the manor land. A full catalogue of these rights appeared in Schedule 12, paragraphs 5 and 6 of the Law of Property Act 1922 (now repealed). That list is, however, conveniently reproduced in HM Land Registry Practice Guide 66—Overriding interests losing automatic protection in 2013, within that guidance document for reference...
