All-new Chancery Guide

The 2022 edition of the Chancery Guide is now in force and available to view

The all-digital document was last published in 2016, prior to the Business and Property Courts being set up in July 2017.

The latest version aims to align practice in the Chancery Division with other courts in the Business and Property Courts.

It contains: up-to-date guidance on remote/hybrid hearings and e-bundles; page limits on statements of case and skeleton arguments; and guidance on accounts, inquiries and property disputes.

The guide is accompanied by a Practice Note from the Chancellor, Sir Julian Flaux, which sets out certain Practice Notes and Directions which remain in force—all other Chancery Division Practice Notes and Directions have been revoked. Users should not assume any previous guidance remains the same.
