Update from the Lord Chief Justice - jury trials

18/3/2020

 
Last night The Lord Chief Justice announced that jury trials that last three days or less will continue to be listed in England and Wales, in light of the coronavirus outbreak.
 
All cases estimated to last longer than three days listed to start before the end of April 2020 will be adjourned. These cases will be kept under review and the position regarding short trials will be revisited as circumstances develop and in any event next week.
 
The LCJ also advised that as events unfold, decisions will be taken in respect of all cases awaiting trial in the Crown Court.
 
This HMCTS gov.uk coronavirus guidance page will be updated with more detail as soon as possible.
 
HMCTS' social media accounts are also carrying content about this and the outbreak more generally: @hmctsgovuk @judiciaryuk
