The latest CPR updates

At the beginning of April 2007 a new practice direction relating to Telephone Hearings was published. This heralds a dramatic increase in the use of telephone hearings, as well as a standardisation of the procedures, making them more simple, easy to use and reliable than ever.

The relevant directions can be found under Practice Direction (PD) 23 of the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR). This Practice Direction supplements Part 23 of the CPR.

The new guidelines that should be followed can be found on the HMCS website at the link below:
