Hearings in the Supreme Court are now shown live on the Court’s website.

On Tuesday 19 January the Supreme Court will hear the case of Matthew and Ors v Sedman and Ors. The appeal will consider whether a date should have been included or excluded for the purposes of limitation and, consequently, whether the Appellants’ claim against the Respondents is time-barred.

On Wednesday 20 and Thursday 21 January the Supreme Court will hear the case of R (on the application of AB) v Secretary of State for Justice. The appeal will consider whether the Court of Appeal erred (i) in its approach to international materials and (ii) by failing to apply a ‘strict necessity’ test when determining whether the Respondent’s treatment of the Appellant during the first 55 days of his detention at Feltham Young Offenders’ Institution breached Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
