Appeared for the GMC in the Administrative Court in a judicial review brought by a medical charity against the GMC’s refusal to entertain a complaint against a group of doctors regarding events in 1990, and seeking a protective costs order. The claim concerns the proper legal approach to the five year time limit for complaints. Permission was granted at an oral hearing in February 2009 but the claim was withdrawn in early 2010 after a protective costs order was refused.
