Abstract: Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to provide an annual update on case law relating to compulsory purchase and compensation. Design/methodology/approach - Researching decisions made by the Court of Appeal and Upper Tribunal (Lands Chamber) in the field of compensation. Commentary on the legal and valuation implications of a selection of those cases is provided. Findings - In the last year, there have been a number of interesting cases concerning residual valuations, blight caused by HS2, and Tree Preservation Orders. Research limitations/implications - The research is limited by the case law available in the last 12 months and this has been a relatively quiet year. Practical implications - The commentary should assist practitioners to formulate claims for compensation having regard to recent developments in case law. Originality/value - Its originality and value lies in the fact that it is based on recent legal decisions which have not yet been widely reported.
