Tomlin order
In civil proceedings, a form of order used to give effect to a compromise of litigation in the High Court. It is based on a Practice Direction issued by Mr Justice Tomlin in 1927. The order is made by consent of the parties and states that on terms agreed between them (which are scheduled to the order) all further proceedings are to be stayed except for the purpose of putting the agreed terms into effect. Relevant rules of procedure are found in Part 40 of the Civil Procedure Rules. |
