Today's Video Focus:  In Zimbabwe, a row has erupted between the government and the family of Robert Mugabe over when the former leader will be buried. The family have agreed to a government plan to give him a state funeral and bury him at a monument to national heroes in the capital Harare, but that could take weeks to happen. Mugabe is seen by many in Africa as a hero of the war against white rule in the 1970s. In the west, he's widely regarded as a tyrant for his violent campaign to seize white farms after 1998. But in Matabeleland, he is remembered for massacres of the Ndbele people, who supported his political rival in the 1980s. We went to Matopo, where some of the worst atrocities took place.

2817th Edition: LawNewsIndex is a UK based legal news & articles archive since 2011 focusing on Law, Lawyers, Law Firms, Justice, Legislation, Litigation, Legal Ethics, Human Rights & Social Justice issues.

Today's Video Focus:  New documentary Seahorse tells the story of Freddy McConnell, whose desire to start his own family was filmed from start to finish, including birth. In this exclusive video for the Guardian, Freddy and director Jeanie Finlay discuss the collaborative process behind the scenes of the film, and the complex nuances and challenges of portraying an emotional and unpredictable process. 

Focus of the Day Article:  HM Revenue & Customs will not have to pay the £6,245 costs of a wine wholesaler who successfully appealed a decision notice, a tribunal has ruled. Judge Greg Sinfield, sitting in the First Tier Tribunal (Tax) in Hare Wines Ltd v Revenue & Customs (COSTS - application by Appellant for costs), made the distinction between a case with merits and one which was obviously meritorious. He concluded that a paying party could not be penalised simply because their opponents have a case with merits. Full story - The Law Society Gazette

11th September - Law News

2816th Edition: LawNewsIndex is a UK based legal news & articles archive since 2011 focusing on Law, Lawyers, Law Firms, Justice, Legislation, Litigation, Legal Ethics, Human Rights & Social Justice issues.

Today's Video Focus:  US Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch sits down with CNN's Ariane de Vogue to discuss President Trump's attacks on the judiciary and the role of the court.

Focus of the Day Article:  One of the first key pieces of correspondence with a new client is your client care letter. Judging by some of the client care letters I’ve seen over the years, there could be more ‘care’ put into constructing the contents of the letter. The upcoming changes to the SRA Code of Conduct, specifically the 10 new SRA Principles, will have an increased focus on client service – and this means law firms will need to consider much more carefully how they communicate with their clients.
