Judgment Approved by the court for handing down. “4. Solicitor General v Millinder Paul Millinder shall not, without the leave of the High Court, whether personally or through any other person on his behalf or acting under his direction, institute civil proceedings or applications or criminal proceedings in any Court or Tribunal. … 6. No application (other than one for leave under section 42 of the Senior Courts Act 1981) shall be made by Mr Millinder, in any civil or criminal proceedings instituted in any Court by any person, without the leave of the High Court. … 8.

The Order of the Court of Appeal 14. Mr Millinder sought permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal against the section 42 order. Permission was refused on the papers by Lord Justice William Davis on 11 November 2021.
