EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


Article 2 of this Order amends article 4 of the Access to Justice Act 1999 (Destination of Appeals) Order 2000 in two ways.

Sub-paragraph (a) of article 4 at present provides that an appeal will lie to the Court of Appeal in a claim which has been allocated to the multi-track under three specified rules of the Civil Procedure Rules. The amendment provides that where a claim is allocated to the multi-track under any provision of those Rules, an appeal will lie to the Court of Appeal.

Sub-paragraph (b) of article 4 provides that an appeal in specialist proceedings will lie to the Court of Appeal. With the exception of proceedings under the Companies Acts 1985 and 1989, such specialist proceedings are now contained in Sections I, II and III of Part 57 and in Parts 58 to 63 of the Civil Procedure Rules.
