Cumbria, Northumberland Tyne & Wear NHS Foundation Trust & Anor v EG [2021] EWHC 2990 (Fam)

Lieven J gives reasons for allowing an appeal against the FTT decision to conditionally discharge EG applying s3 Human Rights Act 1998 to extend s72(1)(b)(i) Mental Health Act 1983 to include a requirement to treat in the community. She also dismissed an application to use the inherent jurisdiction of the High Court in respect of vulnerable persons (with capacity), to authorise a deprivation of EG’s liberty, as an unacceptable use of that jurisdiction.
