Key definition
Previews definition What does Previews mean? In legal practice, previews are advance screenings of a film before the official release date, including press, trade, test or limited paid performances. The term is descriptive rather than defined in legislation or case law, and is typically defined by contract in distribution, exhibition, marketing and financing agreements. Key issues are whether a preview amounts to a public exhibition (triggering classification and licensing considerations), how box office is reported, and what publicity is permitted. Across England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, public screenings are generally subject to local authority film classification policies (commonly adopting BBFC ratings) and venue licensing requirements....

ARCHIVED:
This year’s round-up surveys the standout developments of 2017 and looks ahead to what 2018 may bring. Over 2017 there were amendments to the immigration rules affecting Tier 2, partner and child routes; the arrival of the eea Regs 2016; Supreme Court judgments on the ‘deport now, appeal later’ approach and on Article 8 under the ‘new’ 2012 Rules (including the minimum income threshold); and a broader roll-out of hostile environment measures. For 2018 we expect definitive clarification on the status of resident EEA/Swiss nationals and their third country national family members in light of Brexit (following the 8 December 2017 agreement on the citizens’ rights phase), the launch of the ‘settled status’ application process, a new Immigration Bill—potentially distinct from a new Withdrawal Agreement Bill—and further changes to the Immigration Rules. We also provide updates to LexisNexis®’s content, highlighting notable developments over the past year and what to expect in the next 12 months.

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...
