"I realise that some of my criticisms may be mistaken; but to refuse to criticize judgements for fear of being mistaken is to abandon criticism altogether... If any of my criticisms are found to be correct, the cause is served; and if any are found to be incorrect the very process of finding out my mistakes must lead to the discovery of the right reasons, or better reasons than I have been able to give, and the cause is served just as well."

-Mr. HM Seervai, Preface to the 1st ed., Constitutional Law of India.

House of Lords Decisions

House of Lords decides on the validity of displacement of inhabitants of Chagos Islands, Indian Ocean [In this decision, the House of Lords cites an SSRN paper]
[This judgement also discusses principles of Judicial Review, Legitimate Expectations]

House of Lords on Apparent Bias [Here the Palestinian Appellant contends that the Jewish Adjudicator was biased]

House of Lords on ECHR, Family Life and Justice This is an interesting case that depicts the clash betwen laws of two entirely different legal systems.
