    Processes and Procedures (Court forms)

    Hi, I'm new here, seeking advice on what court forms are needed and when, is there a flow chart available? or where should I be looking?, its as if we all should know and the courts (county/mag) aren't really helpful in these matters.

        I'm actually unsure, I'm very new to this world, in honesty I have only ever replied to court papers (as its the only time courts give advice imho) and yet I'm unsure on the differences of County, Magistrates - who deals with what and how.

        I'm looking to bring either a money claim or breach of contract claim or both as they related. I'm unsure of process/procedures hence why I'm asking.

          Small Claims Court, so County Court. So read post 3.

            Magistrates deal with criminal offences so as Echat11 says it is County Court.

              Hows does one know who deals with what, Magistrates v County Court v High Court?

              From reading, it seems cases can be passed down from High > County > Magistrates, but only passed up on referrals for a second opinion or to fight a judgement.

              I'm still lost on what each court does & purpose.

                  This should help with understanding them -
