The King's Bench Division has published an updated version of the 8th Edition of the King's Bench Guide to formally reflect the name change from the Queen's Bench Division.

Lexis®Library update: The changes do not appear to be of a substantive nature, but note the following:

  • all references to 'Queen' and 'QB' have been updated accordingly
  • many of the hyperlinks in the guide have been updated
  • Mr Justice Soole is now noted as being in charge of the civil list
  • email addresses have changed, for example QBEnquiries@justice.gov.uk is now kbenquiries@justice.gov.uk
  • the guidance on headings for court documents has been updated to reflect the name change
  • some of the Masters' clerks' names/emails in Annex 6 have been updated
