QBD users can now deposit applications via drop box at RCJ entrance

Article summary

HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HMCTS) has issued two ‘Information for Court Users’ updates relating to ‘Queen’s Bench General, Media and Communications’ and ‘Queen’s Bench Masters Listing and Action Department’. The updates state that court users can deposit applications and claim forms with receipt of payment by debit/credit card or a fee remission certificate in the Queen’s Bench Division (QBD) drop box which is situated at the main entrance of the Royal Courts of Justice (RCJ). HMCTS encourages unrepresented litigants in person to use CE-File if they already have a QB claim number, but if this is not possible writs of control and writs of possession applications can also be submitted in this manner.
