JPIL Article by Ben Collins KC: ‘Clinical testing – whose body is it anyway?’

News, Personal injury

The latest edition of the Journal of Personal Injury Law (J.P.I. Law 2026, 3, 152-159) includes an article by Ben Collins KC, entitled Clinical testing – whose body is it anyway? The article considers the circumstances in which a Court will stay proceedings in the absence of agreement by the Claimant to undergo some form of testing, in particular by reference to the decision of the Court of Appeal in Clarke v Poole [2025] PIQR P14 (in which Ben Collins KC and David Rivers of Old Square Chambers, instructed by Kate Nicklin of Irwin Mitchell, appeared for the successful Claimant/Appellant).

The Journal of Personal Injury Law (JPIL) is published quarterly in association with APIL, covering recent developments in personal injury, such as case law, statutes and regulations, with their implications for practitioners. Each issue includes articles written by leading barristers, solicitors and academics.
