LNB NEWS: HMCTS issues 'hints and tips' for emailing the CTSC

HM Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS) has issued 'hints and tips' for practitioners when emailing the Courts and Tribunals Service Centre (CTSC), including the correct email addresses for proceedings issued before the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020 (DDSA 2020) came into force (divorcecase@justice.gov.uk) and proceedings issued after DDSA 2020 came into force (contactdivorce@justice.gov.uk). 

Lexis®Library update: As the CTSC email sorting system does not look at an attachment for the name of that attachment, but rather at the subject line and the first couple of lines of the email body, tips to ensure that emails are sorted into the correct folder at the CTSC include ensuring that the subject title contains both what the email is in relation to and the case number, for example 'Re: [16-digit reference number] – marriage certificate'.
