What does Lender mean? In legal practice, a lender is the party that advances money or otherwise extends credit to a borrower under a loan or facility agreement, to be repaid (usually with interest and fees) on agreed terms. Lenders include banks, building societies, finance companies, credit funds and syndicates (often acting through an agent and security trustee). “Lender” is a descriptive term used across financing contexts rather than a term generally defined in statute.

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...
