Guidance

Admiralty registrar hearing and trial dates

The earliest available dates (lead times) for hearings and trials before the Admiralty registrar, based on how long they are expected to last.

The Admiralty Court is part of the Business and Property Courts of the High Court of Justice. They handle shipping and maritime disputes. Cases are heard by one Admiralty judge. Other matters may be heard by the Admiralty registrar.

You can also find lead times for the:

  • Commercial Court, who handle the most difficult and high value business disputes
  • Circuit Commercial Court, who handle a wide range of smaller and less complex commercial, business and professional disputes

The lead times show how long the current wait for a hearing or trial is, based on how long they are expected to last.
