Private case-public scandal

Product Information

The data on family related court cases is principally sourced from the court administrative system, FamilyMan, used by court staff for case management purposes. It contains good quality information about a case’s progress through the family courts. Because of the nature of the books in the Suppressed Safe collection—sometimes being held there because of legal requirements—it remains a closed collection, with no access to readers. [8]

The Mental Capacity Act 2005 provides a statutory framework to empower and protect vulnerable people who are not able to make their own decisions. It makes it clear who can take decisions, in which situations, and how they should go about this. It enables people to plan ahead for a time when they may lose capacity. Mental Capacity Act figures are provided directly to MoJ from the Court of Protection (CoP) and the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) from their data management systems. Information about Lasting Power of Attorney records (LPAs) is managed by OPG’s Sirius case management system. Sirius is the first case management system in government developed using Government Digital Service principles; it is built with open source technologies, cloud hosted and maintained by teams in OPG. 14.2 Counting Rules Peakman, Julie (2003).

Table 10 suggests that for almost half of the divorces not involving financial remedies disposed, neither party had legal representation. However, further analysis shows that these were uncontested cases and almost all of them did not have a single hearing. Therefore, parties recorded as without legal representation are not necessarily self-representing litigants in person. The contents of the Private Case collection changed over time, shrinking as works were declassified and put into the general collection, and growing when the library received bequests and donations from collectors. Some of these were large: the book collector Henry Spencer Ashbee's 1900 bequest contained 1,379 volumes of erotica; the anthropologist Eric Dingwall—an honorary assistant keeper to the department of printed books—donated several works during his lifetime and at his death; and in 1964 the bibliophile Charles Reginald Dawes bequeathed 246 works of erotic literature.Thomas, Jeffrey F.

There are two ways to legally end a marriage or a civil partnership. An individual can apply for a divorce which will give them a decree absolute, ending a valid marriage or civil partnership – this occurs in the vast majority of cases. Alternatively, an individual can apply for a decree of nullity, which declares that the marriage or civil partnership itself is void, specifically no valid marriage or civil partnership ever existed; or voidable, specifically the marriage or civil partnership was valid unless annulled. No application can be made for divorce within the first year of a marriage or a civil partnership. An alternative to divorce is a decree of judicial separation or a decree of separation of civil partners, but this does not allow them to remarry or enter into a civil partnership. Figure 2 shows the main court processes for divorce or dissolution cases. The difference between MoJ and Cafcass figures is mainly due to Cafcass only receiving section 8 cases [footnote 2] from the courts. Other differences between the datasets include the following:

Welsh Assembly Government: Gives information on all aspects of the Welsh Assembly together with details of publications and statistics. Note: Due to recording errors for some paper petitions, the date when the petition was issued have been incorrectly recorded as the date the petition was received by HMCTS from September 2020. This has resulted in the receipt and issue date being the same and it is estimated to affect around 50% of paper petitions to March 2021. This means that some petitions recorded as been received in one quarter may have actually been received in an earlier quarter, and this would also shorten times to decree nisi and absolute (by around a week). This issue was identified in June 2021 and work is ongoing to correct data entry moving forward. 6.1 Digital system
