Listing definition

What does Listing mean? Listing describes the admission of a company’s securities to the official list and, in parallel, to trading on a regulated market (e.g. the London Stock Exchange Main Market or Euronext Dublin), after meeting prescribed eligibility and disclosure standards. In the UK, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) maintains the Official List under Part 6 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and the Listing Rules. Admission confirms compliance with those rules and triggers continuing obligations (e.g. timely disclosure, significant transactions, and related party rules). Premium listings additionally require a sponsor and enhanced standards (including governance and free float) compared...

Appropriate level of judge for CPR applications and injunctions in England and Wales: jurisdiction, allocation and N244 guidance (High Court and county court)

Published by a LexisNexis Dispute Resolution expert

Practice notes

This Practice Note provides guidance on the interpretation and application of the relevant provisions of the CPR.

The court handling your case may require attention to further provisions-see the section Court specific guidance below for more detail.

It is prudent to address them in that sequence: if a judge does not have jurisdiction to determine the application, they should not be named on the application notice. Even where jurisdiction exists, the listing office will expect you to nominate a judge consistent with the court's allocation practice. Be aware that, even if a judge lacks...

Tomlin orders in England and Wales: CPR guidance on drafting, confidentiality, approval, variation, enforcement, limitation, CCA issues, court-specific requirements, sample wording and precedents

This Practice Note This Practice Note reviews mechanisms used in settling litigation. A Tomlin order consists of a consent order paired with a schedule. It operates to stay proceedings on terms that have been agreed. The provisions contained in the schedule may remain confidential. This Practice Note describes the scope of confidentiality attaching to the schedule and sets out how it differs from a standard consent order. Sample wording for a Tomlin order is included, alongside links to precedents, as well as guidance on court approval. It also addresses varying, setting aside and enforcing a Tomlin order, including the considerations the court will take into account when handling applications for each. Further guidance is provided on interpreting and applying the relevant provisions of the CPR; however, some courts and divisions impose very specific requirements for both drafting and approval, and for approaching the schedule and confidentiality issues. Accordingly, you must consider the particular rules and court guide provisions in the forum where your claim is proceeding when drawing up the Tomlin order...
