Article summary

Insurance & Reinsurance analysis: Patrick Vincent QC, Cressida Mawdesley-Thomas, Philip Mead and Richard Viney, all of 12 Kings Bench Walk, appeared in the case of Greenaway & Rocks v Covea Insurance and others, in which Mr Justice Martin Spencer considered how the domestic court is to interpret retained EU law. It was agreed that this was a case which, pre-Brexit, would have almost certainly been referred to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) for a preliminary ruling. Patrick Vincent QC and Cressida Mawdesley-Thomas consider this decision and its implications.
