PRACTICE NOTES
What is a predatory marriage? The practice of targeting and marrying a vulnerable person who is often older to gain control of their property and assets upon death. It involves grooming the person and influencing them so that they make a decision to marry, that they may not even understand. What does a predatory marriage look like? The predator will usually use three techniques to gain control over the person: • grooming the person so that they feel valued and loved by the predator. They may describe themselves as the persons carer and hi-light repeatedly to the person how valuable they are to the person. They may even move into the home • isolation—the predator will aim to isolate them from family and friends and may often claim the family have forgotten them or are not looking after them when in reality the predator is blocking calls and visits • disputes—the predator will be willing to create disputes between family members and friends to gain greater control of the person they are targeting. They might say ‘he forgot
PRACTICE NOTES
Predatory pricing is a well recognised ‘exclusionary’ abuse under Article 102 TFEU—namely, conduct engaged in by a dominant undertaking which specifically targets competitors and aims to eliminate or weaken their position as viable rivals (either by forcing them out of the market or by deterring market entry). In particular, this is achieved by a dominant firm forgoing profits in the short term in order to drive out or discourage competitors. Once the dominant firm has successfully excluded existing competitors or potential entrants, the dominant undertaking will have strengthened its position and be free, in theory, to charge supra-competitive prices and/or degrade its downstream offerings without consequence. While predation is conceptually easy to recognise and appreciate, distinguishing between a predatory price and legitimate price competition under Article 102 TFEU is by no means straight-forward, as: • even dominant firms may lower their prices for totally legitimate and consumer beneficial reasons, • even where concerns turn out to be genuine, initial indications of predation can often appear pro-competitive—ie low prices are, intuitively, a good thing and indeed a fundamental objective of EU

ARCHIVED: This Practice Note has been archived and is not maintained. This Practice Note states the law as understood in England. Local authorities and other public bodies have a general duty to act fairly. This applies both to procedure and substance, and flows from the two cardinal rules of natural justice, namely that: • noone is to be a judge in their own cause (nemo judex in causa sua), and • matters in issue are to be determined after hearing from both or all the parties involved (audi alteram partem) The modern duty to act fairly is a flexible, context-sensitive doctrine requiring those consulting about or taking decisions on behalf of the public to do so (and be seen to do so) in a manner that is demonstrably fair in all the circumstances and untainted by any issue or perception of personal or other extraneous interest. Public authority decisions that are affected by actual or perceived bias (prejudice towards a particular outcome)
PRACTICE NOTES
Why do law firms need budgets and how might they be structured? Like any other business, a law firm needs some budgets each year so: • it can properly control its income and expenditure, and, as a result • it can reduce the risk of the final profit not being in line with expectations It is worrying how many firms do not have budgets and when challenged the reason given is often that they are not a business but a professional firm. A law firm may be a professional firm but it still needs to be run in a business-like way. Law firms are very straightforward compared to some other businesses: they are simply buying the time of fee earners and selling that time on to clients with a view to making a profit. A law firm will also incur overheads in addition to the cost of the fee earners. This is necessary to: • enable the fee earners to work efficiently and effectively • ensure the services that are delivered
