"This is the final court of appeal for the UK overseas territories and Crown dependencies. It also serves those Commonwealth countries that have retained the appeal to His Majesty in Council or, in the case of republics, to the Judicial Committee."

"Is section 128 of the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022, which inserted sections 27A and 27B into the Crime (Sentences) Act 1997, compatible with articles 5, 7, and 14 (read with article 5), of the European Convention on Human Rights?"

"Does “control” for the purposes of Article 1(1)(c) of the investment treaty agreed between the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic and the Swiss Confederation dated 5 October 1990 (“BIT”) require that the legal entity be controlled de jure, or is de facto control sufficient? What is the test for “de facto” control for the purposes of Article 1(1)(c) BIT? Did the CA err by holding that CR’s objection to Mr Strava’s claim in respect of breaches of the BIT post-dating the alleged disposal of his interest in the qualifying investments was not an objection to “substantive jurisdiction” under section 30 Arbitration Act 1996? Did the Court of Appeal err by ordering that the full BIT award should be paid to Mr Stava despite finding that Diag Human SE was not a qualifying investor for the purposes of the BIT?"

"Did the courts below err in finding that the Appellant unreasonably failed to mitigate its loss? If the courts below were correct to find that the defendant unreasonably failed to mitigate its loss, did that failure arise: (1) on 31 January 2012, when the Appellant instructed the Respondent to reconvert the money in its account from US dollars into South African Rands (as the Commercial Division found), or (2) on 1 March 2012, owing to the Appellant’s failure to direct that the money in its account be converted into US dollars (as the Court of Civil Appeal found)?"
