The Court has now announced that, after some time in development and seeking the professions’ input through the Financial Services User’s Group, they are now in a position to start trialing an e filing system in early 2018. The FSD Users Group are being consulted by the Court on the project, and four firms have volunteered to assist with the trial. The assistance will involve filing on a number of FSD cases in parallel – using e filing systems in addition to the official paper filing – as well as volunteering staff time to assist with all the associated work around drafting directions and policies prior to the system going live in 2018. Whilst the volunteer group covers representatives of medium and large firms, any smaller firms or individual practitioners wanting to volunteer to assist with the trial are asked to contact Sam Dawson (sam.dawson@careyolsen.com) in the first instance.
