Civil cases are allocated to one of three Case Management Tracks, depending on financial value, issues of law and the likely duration (length) of the case. The three tracks are:
– the small claims track in which cases to the value of five thousand pounds can be considered and the claimant does not have to have legal representation
– the fast track for cases of value between five and fifteen thousand pounds and
– the multi- track for cases of value over fifteen thousand pounds. Legal representation is advisable in the fast and multi-tracks.
