Stayed cases
A stay is considered when a decision has been reached by a Social Security or Child Support Commissioner, the Court of Appeal, or the House of Lords and an application for leave to appeal the decision has been made, or is actively being considered, to a higher court by any party to the proceedings. The case subject to appeal is known as the ‘lead case’ and, if there are similar cases awaiting an appeal tribunal hearing, no further action is taken on theses cases until a decision on the lead case has been made by the higher court.
Details of all our current stayed cases are recorded on this webpage and are removed three months after the stay has been lifted. The Tribunal President, Robert Martin, will decide whether to stay cases presently awaiting a decision, specifying the types of cases to be stayed and when the stay should subsequently be lifted.
