Interim and final injunctions

6 April 2025 changes

The CPR provisions relevant to interim injunctive relief were amended with effect from 6 April 2025. In particular, CPR 25 was revised extensively and the accompanying Practice Directions, including the example draft orders included in Annex A and Annex B of Practice Direction 25A, were revoked. Three new ‘model orders’ also came into force on 6 April 2025.

The changes were not intended to materially alter the substantive law or practice. However, the numbering and location of many of the provisions were changed. Case law and commentary which pre-dates 6 April 2025 should therefore be approached with some caution as they may refer to the old provisions, numbering and standard orders.

For further background, including links to the model orders in force from 6 April 2025, and the provisions as in force prior to 6 April 2025, see:

Russian litigants flock to UK courts after record slump

Law360, London: The number of Russian litigants using London's commercial courts has more than doubled in the past year and could be a signal that sanctions have had little long-term impact on judgments, an advisory firm reported 20 May 2025.

Commercial contracts—renunciation, affirmation, and guarantees (Chugga Chugg v Privinvest)

Commercial analysis: The High Court ruled against Privinvest in a dispute over a parent company guarantee relating to a luxury yacht construction contract. The case provides valuable guidance on contract renunciation, affirmation and interpretation of guarantee clauses. The court held that discussions about potential termination did not constitute a 'clear and unequivocal' renunciation, that subsequent conduct affirmed the contract, and that a claim admitted in German insolvency remained 'contested' for guarantee enforcement purposes. The judgment offers practical insights into how commercial negotiations and conduct affect contractual rights and obligations in high-value commercial relationships. Written by Katie Chandler, Partner, Head of Disputes & Investigations UK and Natalia Faekova (senior associate) at Taylor Wessing LLP.
