Lexis®Library update: Solicitors will also have the ability to move the case out of the archived state, should their client decide they wish to continue with the case. Previously cases in the draft state were unable to be closed or archived and remained in the solicitor's case list, making it more difficult to find relevant cases.
The revised functionality is only available in relation to cases added following the coming into force of the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020 on 6 April 2022.
