“An agreement between the mortgagor and mortgagee consolidating the unpaid instalments leading up to a suspended possession order and the future mortgage instalments thereby enlarging the total amount of loan did not have the effect of creating a new contract of loan displacing the original contract of loan. Nor did the agreement affect the survival of the suspended possession order entitling the mortgagee to take immediate possession of the mortgaged property without any further order based on the new contract.”

Eba v Advocate General for Scotland [2011] UKSC 29; [2011] WLR (D) 204
“The approach to judicial review of unappealable decisions of the Upper Tribunal in Scotland should be to align itself with what had been decided by the Supreme Court to be the approach to be taken in England and Wales. Accordingly, as in England and Wales, the same criteria which had to be satisfied when making a second-tier appeal to the Court of Appeal applied when deciding whether a refusal of permission by the Upper Tribunal to appeal to itself was open to judicial review in Scotland.”

“The structure of the tribunals system under the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 was designed to be flexible, as was the role of the Upper Tribunal.

Evidence sought to be adduced for that purpose was not admissible.”
