Coronavirus and the Courts

In this episode, we speak to Housing Barrister and Deputy District Judge Robert Brown and our main topic of discussion is the courts’ system.

There is a lot to talk about!  Our discussion ranges over topics such as

• How the pandemic has changed court procedures from mostly physical attendance at court to telephone and virtual hearings
• The place of mediation in court proceedings
• How the changed procedures have affected duty solicitor services, and
• How the forced experiment in alternative procedures will affect things after the pandemic is over

If you are interested in our Courts system or have a case stuck in the court queue this will be essential listening.
