20th January 2016

Hayley Griffiths acted on behalf of the Local Authority (Swindon Borough Council) in what Sir James Munby, President of the Family Division, described as聽 鈥渢he most difficult care case鈥� he has ever done and further citing the case as being 鈥�desperately sad and worrying鈥�.

The issue in the Matter of D (A Child) (No 3) involved whether a little boy, D, should live with his parents, or, if they could not adequately look after him, should he, as the local authority Swindon Borough Council, argued, be adopted outside the family.聽 As Sir James Munby added: "This is by some margin the most difficult and unusual care case I have ever had to try."
