New case alert: A (A Patient), Re [2016] EWCOP 38

Substantial costs order made against the P's nephew who:

"...has been unrelentingly pertinacious in pursuit of what he believes to be his aunt's best interests [and where] his pursuit of that laudable endeavour has become obsessive and his desire to litigate (most of the time as a litigant in person) and to correspond with all and sundry has become compulsive.
