Journalists and legal bloggers will be able to report on proceedings in the Financial Remedies Court from the end of January 2024, in a pilot project
Three courts—the Central Family Court, Birmingham and Leeds—will take part in the pilot, which has been launched by Sir Andrew McFarlane, President of the Family Court, following his 2021 report, Transparency in the family court.
Financial remedies proceedings concern unresolved financial issues after the end of a marriage or civil partnership. The pilot will not cover financial dispute resolution hearings, which are confidential settlement meetings held with the assistance of a judge on a without prejudice basis.
