Tomlin Order

A Tomlin Order stays a claim on agreed terms that are set out in a schedule to the court order, which remains confidential between the parties and brings the disputes between the parties and the litigation to an end other than for the purpose of enforcement proceedings, if they are required.

The terms of settlement are thus set out in a confidential schedule to the order.

Usage: A litigants agreed to settlement their claims by way of Tomlin Order.
