help needed to understand upper tribunal letter

Lisa

I am really surprised that the DWP have released the funds following the original FTT hearing of there was an appeal to the UTT on-going.

As Derek has said, you need to read the UTT Judges Decision, if the Error was limited to the Mobility element only and they have raised no issues with the Daily Living award then it is possible that the new FTT panel will only look at the Mobility, but it is far more usual for the whole claim to be reviewed.

It's also possible that you will be asked at the FTT whether you want the Daily Living component to be reviewed or not.

Stayed low rate which ended up we believed should of been high rate as they made the error in law surely you only go to an appeal if you disagree the judge is saying go back to ftt so surely we just appeal the mobility side ....

The new FTT must warn you if they are considering a reduction in your current Daily Living or Mobility award so that you can withdraw the appeal.

It's perfectly possible that the FTT will only look at the Mobility component, but based on the information you have posted I cannot state this for certain, you will only know on the day, although you could write to the TS explaining that you are only appealing the Mobility component.
