Digital Court Service

Members of the public are now able to:

• Submit your forms via email;
• Make payments via the bank;
• Place digital signatures on your documents for submission.

Please note, to facilitate the submission of forms via email, the courts will be implementing a ‘holding policy’ for fees.  Anyone submitting a form electronically will be given 3 working days to send payment to the office, or make payment via standard chartered bank.  Please note, if the service you request requires a fee to be paid your paperwork will not be processed until confirmation of payment has been received.  If payment is not received within 3 working days your paperwork will be deleted from the court system.

The service recognises that not everyone will wish to engage with the courts in this way, so the option to request paper copies of documents will remain.

Court List

Whenever possible, the court list will be updated by 4 pm each Friday, providing details of listings for the following week. 

The Criminal Procedure Rules prevent the court from providing details of criminal cases for a period of time longer than seven days and you may need to check back regularly for full details of criminal cases. The Courts and Tribunals Service endeavours to provide lists which are free of errors but gives no warranty as to their accuracy.

Changes to the list may be made at short notice at the discretion of the Court. Where amendments to listings take place after the list has been published, the Courts and Tribunals Service will endeavour to ensure these amendments are made available to the public as soon as practicable.
