Please be aware that the interpretation of the rules and practice direction is a matter for the courts. We therefore cannot deal with enquiries about the meaning of a rule or practice direction, or how they should be applied. We do not provide advice on individual cases. We recommend that you seek independent legal advice where appropriate.
