This Q&A refers to the situation where there is a group litigation order (GLO) in place and the court has exercised its direction for a claim to proceed as a test claim and that the claim has been settled.

General provisions

CPR Part 8 is generally used for resolving claims that do not involve a substantial dispute of fact. A number of provisions within CPR 7 and CPR PD 7A apply to all claims, including Part 8 claims and should, therefore, be applied where appropriate (CPR PD 8A, para 4.1).

Where a claimant uses the CPR Part 8 procedure, the claim form (Form N208) should be used (CPR PD 7A, para 3.1).
