This authoritative study is the first devoted to Permanence Orders. It comprehensively describes the court process from initiation to conclusion. It guides the practitioner from considering the available orders into considering the rules governing the application. The form of evidence required is described before an examination of the expanding caselaw detailing the thresholds of the different orders, the role of welfare and contact. The book concludes with consideration of expenses and the exacting hurdles attaching to appeals.ABOUT THE AUTHORAlan Inglis was Called to the Bar of England and Wales in 1989 and the Scots Bar in 2009.
