About Court Rules

Rules of the Superior Courts and Circuit Court are presented in consolidated format.  District Court rules will be similarly presented in the near future.

Where a statutory instrument inserts a new order into the Rules, the new order is included in the Index of Rules. Where a statutory instrument inserts a new appendix to the rules, the new appendix is included in the list of Appendices. Otherwise all amendments are appended to the relevant rule or appendix.
