What's New?
33rd Update - This update of the Civil Procedure Rules, published on 24 September, includes new provisions in Section III of Part 34 which set out the procedures for co-operation between EU member states on taking evidence in civil or commercial matters. Amongst other things it also provides for recovery of fixed costs in certain road traffic accident disputes (Part 45), procedures for making applications to the Court of Appeal and High Court to reopen a final determination of an appeal, or application for permission to appeal, and procedures for the High Court registration of enforcement orders of the International Criminal Court.
Please note that the coming into force date for the amendment to PD5B, which deals with communication and filing of documents by e-mail, has been brought forward to 6th October 2003.
33rd Update Supplement
PD5B amended to exclude text after paragraph 5.2 which should have been deleted.
PD52 comes into force on 2 dates: 6th October 2003 and 13th October 2003. Additional details have been included in the Notes to Accompany to clarify which changes come into force on which dates.
34th Update - We expect this to be published early in 2004.
An html CPR index is now available which incorporates 33rd update changes. Should you have any comments about the web index we'd appreciate your feedback to: web.comments@lcdhq.gsi.gov.uk.
The Court Service is responsible for the provision of the CPR forms - if you have any comments or observations about the availability of court forms, please e-mail the Court Service.
The Court Service has launched a new-look website which has resulted in changes to many of its links. If you bookmarked any forms prior to 30 January you will need to re-mark them.
Details about this CPR site are available in the Help page.
If you have any views please let us know: web.comments@lcdhq.gsi.gov.uk
