Judgment on the application by Mr Alister Redler to discharge a witness summons
It concerns an award made by one of the two appointed surveyors and “the third surveyor”,
Mr Alistair Redler FRICS. Last week the Respondents applied for a witness summons to
compel the attendance of Mr Redler, which I granted. He applied by email on Wednesday,
14 November 2016 for the witness summons to be discharged on the basis that when acting. as “the third surveyor” he was acting in a quasi-judicial capacity and as such he should not be a compellable witness.
