Practice directions - Crown Court

Practice Directions support relevant rules. In particular they set out procedures that mean to achieve uniformity in practice. In addition they tell parties what the courts expect of them and what the parties can expect of the courts if they for example do not comply with the courts' directions.

The information linked to from the section below is maintained by HM Courts Service, who are responsible for keeping these areas up to date. If you have any queries, please contact their web team.
