Disclaimer definition What does Disclaimer mean? In practice, a disclaimer is the statutory power used in insolvency to renounce “onerous property” (typically an onerous lease, unprofitable contract or burdened asset) so the insolvent estate ceases to incur ongoing liabilities. It is exercised by notice (and, in some cases, with the court’s permission). In England & Wales and Scotland, liquidators and trustees in bankruptcy may disclaim under the Insolvency Act 1986 (liquidations: section 178; bankruptcy: section 315). Northern Ireland has equivalent provisions in the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989. In the UK, the Crown may disclaim property vesting as bona vacantia (Companies Act 2006, section 1013).

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.
