Brownhill I: An Introduction to Health
and Welfare Disputes involving High Net

An Introduction to Health and Welfare Disputes involving High Net Worth Individuals

The Mental Capacity Act (2005) provides health and legal professionals with an academic framework to assess and evaluate an individual’s ability to make a decision, but in practice, mental capacity assessments are often misunderstood and poorly conducted.
Grandpa on a Skateboard is a practical book for health and legal professionals that uses real-life case studies and provides clear, jargon-free guidance to simplify and explain the assessment process.
It has helped thousands of practitioners understand and improve their assessments of mental capacity. This fully updated third edition also covers ‘virtual’ assessments using video conferencing tools and how to deal with fluctuating mental capacity.
This book will:
• Cut through the jargon and clarify the assessment process
• Give you the confidence and ability to conduct robust assessments
• Show how to set the threshold of understanding that is necessary for every assessment
• Enable you to record your assessments appropriately so they stand up to legal scrutiny
• Help you achieve the optimum outcome for those in your charge

The practicalities of assessing mental capacity and unwise decisions

Grandpa on a Skateboard

A Practical Guide to Lasting Powers of Attorney

This open access book explores the High Court's powers under its inherent jurisdiction and wardship in relation to children and incapacitous and vulnerable adults. The book introduces the inherent jurisdiction and investigates its place in the modern law. Part 1 provides a comprehensive history of the inherent jurisdiction, before giving a detailed account of the core principles and procedure applicable today, and comparing the approaches taken in Scotland, Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Part 2 considers the court's use of its inherent jurisdiction in specific categories of case, including child abduction, medical decision-making about children, child protection, incapacitous and vulnerable adults. Despite its ancient roots, the inherent jurisdiction is relied on by High Court judges on a daily basis, in both everyday and cutting-edge cases. This book argues that the court's approach to some of these cases is justified, but that judges often make unnecessary and inappropriate use of the inherent jurisdiction. Through its critical examination of the modern use of wardship and the inherent jurisdiction, the book is essential reading for practitioners and researchers working in this field. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

The Deprivation of Liberty of Children and Young People

Gifting during one's lifetime is not uncommon. It is not unusual for those who are financially comfortable to gift monies or assets they own to their children or loved ones to assist them, particularly in times of hardship and it is their prerogative to do so. However, the situation changes when someone starts losing or has lost capacity. How does one tackle gifting in this scenario?


'Court of Protection: A Practical Guide to Gifting' will take the reader through the relevant statutory principles and case law and:

introduce the relevant capacity which one is required to have to make a gift and the legal test used to determine capacity;
remind attorneys and deputies of the gifts which they are authorised to make;
highlight the ramifications of making an unauthorised gift;
provide practitioners with a checklist of the key points to consider before making an application to the Court of Protection;
explain the procedure involved in preparing such an application.

Lewis and Buchan: Clinical Negligence – A Practical Guide

How does the European Convention on Human Rights apply to people who suffer mental ill-health or are alleged to be affected by such a condition? The last few years have seen a raft of important judgments from Strasbourg concerning the rights of people with mental health issues. This book provides a practical and critical analysis of obligations arising from the rights to life, freedom from inhuman or degrading treatment, liberty and security of the person, family and private life, and other ECHR rights. It considers the impact of human rights and mental health in the context of criminal law, family law and Court of Protection issues. The authors give an article-by-article summary of the most important case law, as well as a thematic summary, drawing together issues relevant to practitioners specialising in mental health law as well as legal practitioners working in fields that require knowledge of Strasbourg jurisprudence on mental health including Court of Protection, family and criminal practitioners. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Family Law online service.

This book examines the ways in which the European Convention on Human Rights applies to people who suffer mental ill-health or are alleged to be affected by such a condition.

Abschiebungshaft gilt als zentrales Instrument der aktuellen Rückführungspolitik. Sie soll die Durchführung von Abschiebungen sichern. Praktiker:innen berichten wiederholt von hohen Fehlerquoten bei den gerichtlichen Haftanordnungen. Daten der Bundesländer, die diese Praxiserfahrungen be- oder widerlegen fehlen jedoch.
Die Studie begegnet diesem Datendefizit durch eine quantiative Inhaltsanalyse der Rechtsprechung des Bundesgerichtshofs. Die gewonnenn Daten geben Aufschluss über Häufigkeit und Ursachen rechtskräftig festgestellter Rechtswidrigkeiten. Auf dieser Grundlage identifiziert die Untersuchung strukturelle Problemlagen und entwickelt Ansatzpunkte zur Verbesserung der Rechtsanwendung und Rechtsdurchsetzung.

Abschiebungshaft zwischen rechtsstaatlichem Anspruch und Wirklichkeit

Law and Criminology (R0)

This book examines the mutual recognition of judicial decisions in European criminal law as a cornerstone of judicial co-operation in criminal matters in the European Union. Providing comprehensive content and combining theoretical and practical aspects, it covers all of the major issues surrounding mutual recognition. The book analyses its definition, genesis, principles, case law, implementation and evaluation. Special attention is given to mutual recognition measures, namely European arrest warrant (i.e. surrender procedure), mutual recognition of custodial sentences, and measures involving deprivation of liberty, mutual recognition of probation measures and alternative sanctions, mutual recognition of financial penalties, mutual recognition of confiscation orders, the European supervision order in pre-trial procedures (i.e. mutual recognition of supervision measures as an alternative to provisional detention), the European investigation order (i.e. free movement of evidence), and the European protection order (i.e. mutual recognition of protection orders). Instead of focusing solely on a criminal law approach, the book also considers the subject from the perspectives of European Union law and International criminal law.&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
