Finding UK Docket Materials

I’ve previously talked about how to find docket information about Canadian courts.

If you’re trying to find information about the status of current British cases, there are a few options:

• The HM Courts & Public Tribunals website offers docket information for the Queen’s Bench Claims and Appeals (London only) and the Business and Property Courts. It is free to search once you create a login. Coverage is as follows:
  • Business and Property Courts (London only): 1 January 2016 (for new cases)
  • Queen’s Bench Claims and Appeals (London only): 5 November 2018
  • Business and Property Courts (outside of London): 25 January 2019
• Case Tracker allows users to search for information on applications or appeals in the Court of Appeal, Civil Division (free)
• Supreme Court of the United Kingdom provides information about current and decided cases (free)
• v|lex is a paid service that offers UK docket information
• GlobalX is another paid service that provides UK court searches and document retrieval
