“Claims arising from the deaths of soldiers on active service abroad alleging breach of the right to life in article 2 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms fell outside the United Kingdom’s jurisdiction under the Convention. However claims in negligence for failing to provide safe equipment and technology to serving soldiers who suffered death or injury were justiciable.”

Government of the United States of America v Nolan (Case C-583/10); [2012] WLR (D) 280
“Since civilian employees at a military base were covered by the exemption from the provisions of Council Directive 98/59/EC provided by article 1(2)(b), the Court of Justice of the European Union did not have jurisdiction, on a reference in proceedings concerning dismissals resulting from a strategic decision concerning the closure of a military base, to give an interpretation of the provisions of that Directove, even though domestic law implemented it.”

Regina v Williams (Orette) [2012] EWCA Crim 2162; [2012] WLR (D) 279
“As a matter of ordinary interpretation, section 1(5) of the Firearms Act 1982 imposed a reverse, legal, burden on a defendant to show that he did not know and had no reason to suspect that the imitation firearm in his possession was readily convertible into a prohibited firearm. That derogation from the presumption of innocence was justified because it was reasonable and proportionate and balanced the importance of what was at stake for the public with the maintenance of the normal rights of the defendant.”

“Clause 4 of the framework agreement on fixed-term work concluded on 18 March 1999, annexed to Council Directive 1999/70/EC, precluded national legislation which completely prohibited periods of service completed by a fixed term worker for a public authority being taken into account in order to determine the length of service of that worker upon his recruitment on a permanent basis by that same authority as a career civil servant under a stabilisation procedure specific to his employment relationship, unless that prohibition was justified on ‘objective grounds’ for the purposes of clause 4(1) and/or (4). The mere fact that the fixed term worker completed those periods of service on the basis of a fixed term employment contract or relationship did not constitute such an objective ground.”
