Details

This report presents the latest statistics on type and volume of cases that are received and processed through the family court system of England and Wales in the third quarter of 2019 (July to September).

The material contained within this publication was formerly contained in Court Statistics Quarterly, a publication combining Civil, Family and Criminal court statistics.

Consultation on Probate statistics:
Currently data on grants of representation issued at published in Tables 25 and 26, including a split by registry type (Principal and District registries). To make sure that our statistics are responding to user needs, we are consulting on the following points and would welcome your views:

  1. With the introduction of new Courts and Tribunals Service Centres, would changing the split by registry type to be CTSC/non CTSC registries be useful, or would you suggest removing this split entirely?
  2. To fully understand the case flow of The Probate Service, we are interested in introducing a measure relating to timeliness:
    a) Would the average number of weeks from application submission to grant issue be useful?
    b) Do you have any other suggestions for a timeliness measure for us to consider?

To participate in this consultation, please send your comments to familycourt.statistics@justice.gov.uk by Friday 17th January 2020.
