HIGH COURT OF JUSTICE
SUMMER VACATION 2008

 

NOTICE

The Summer Vacation will run from Friday, 1st August 2008 up to and including Tuesday, 30th September 2008. In the month of August only applications of real urgency will be dealt with.

Subject to the discretion of the Judge, any appeal and any application normally made to a Judge may be made in the month of September (see Practice Direction – Court 39B of the Civil Procedure Rules).

The Royal Courts of Justice will be closed on Monday 25th August 2008.

CPR PART 39


2.1


(1) One or more Judges of each Division of the High Court shall sit in vacation on such days as the senior judge of that Division may from time to time direct, to hear such cases, claims, matters or applications as require to be immediately or promptly heard and to hear other cases, claims, matters or applications if the senior judge of that Division determines that sittings are necessary for that purpose.

(2) Any party to a claim or matter may at any time apply to the Court for an order that such claim or matter be heard in vacation and, if the Court is satisfied that the claim or matter requires to be immediately or promptly heard, it may make an order accordingly and fix a date for the hearing.

(3) Any Judge of the High Court may hear such other cases, claims, matters or applications in vacation as the Court may direct.

2.2

The directions in paragraph 3.1 shall not apply in relation to the trial or hearing of cases, claims, matters or applications outside the Royal Courts of Justice but the senior Presiding Judge of each Circuit, with the concurrence of the Senior Presiding Judge, and the Vice-Chancellor of the County Palatine of Lancaster and the Chancery Supervising Judge for Birmingham, Bristol and Cardiff, with the concurrence of the Vice-Chancellor, may make such arrangements for vacation sittings in the courts for which they are respectively responsible as they think desirable.

2.3

(1) Subject to the discretion of the Judge, any appeal and any application normally made to a Judge may be made in the month of September.

(2) In the month of August, save with the permission of a Judge or under arrangements for vacation sittings in courts outside the Royal Courts of Justice, appeals to a Judge will be limited to the matters set out in paragraph 3.5 below, and only applications of real urgency will be dealt with, for example urgent applications in respect of injunctions or for possession under RSC Order 113 (Schedule 1 to the CPR).

(3) It is desirable, where this is practical, that applications or appeals are submitted to a Master, District Judge or Judge prior to the hearing of the application or appeal so that they can be marked 'fit for August' or 'fit for vacation.' If they are so marked, then normally the Judge will be prepared to hear the application or appeal in August, if marked 'fit for August' or in September if marked 'fit for vacation'. A request to have the papers so marked should normally be made in writing, shortly setting out the nature of the application or appeal and the reasons why it should be dealt with in August or in September, as the case may be.

 

Enquiries as to which Judges are sitting must be made to the appropriate Officer of the Division.

When the Judge is not sitting, applications may be made if necessary to the Judge personally. The address of the Judge must first be obtained through the Clerk to the Vacation Judge on duty, whose telephone number may be obtained from the listing office responsible for the appropriate Division, or where the offices are closed, at the Security Office (Tel: 020 7947 6260). Applications to the Judge personally are not to be made except after reference to the Judge's clerk or the Officer responsible for listing for the appropriate Division.


The procedure to be followed in respect of applications to each Division is set out below:

5. Advocate's estimate of the length of hearing and a concise statement of the reasons for the urgency of the application

SUMMARY DISPOSAL OF CLAIMS

Applications in these matters should be issued in accordance with Part 24.4(3) of the Rules. Each application issued for the Long Vacation must be accompanied by an Advocate's time estimate and a concise statement of the reason for the urgency of the application. The applications will be listed at the end of the Monday Application List. The Vacation Judge will consider whether the application is vacation business and, if so, will hear it if time allows or adjourn it to a date to be fixed. Such substantive hearing dates in vacation will be arranged through the Judge's Clerk.

COMPANIES COURT

Applications will in the first instance be heard in the Interim Applications List on Mondays and Thursdays. The following is deemed to be vacation business:

Applications to restrain presentation of winding up petitions, applications to restrain advertisement of winding up petitions, applications under section 127 of the Insolvency Act 1986, applications to rescind winding up orders and administration petitions.

Urgent applications should be arranged by and Advocate's Clerk directly with the Vacation Judge's Clerk.

Each application must be accompanied by an Advocate's certificate as to the urgency or a note of special leave granted by one of the Vacation Judges and as to the length of the hearing.
