Court of Protection E- Bill – Version 2
Following the successful completion of the pilot, the SCCO have permitted deputies appointed by the Court of Protection, their legal representatives and other legal professionals involved in Court of Protection cases to file their bills in respect of general management and other applications where relevant authority has been obtained, in electronic spreadsheet form using the approved template.
The SCCO advised in August 2023 that Version 2 of the bill was to be used from 4 September 2023 and that Version 1 of the bill would no longer be accepted. However, a minor error was noted in the filtering functions on the summary sheets and print detail sheets, resulting in a Version 2.1 being made available.
The SCCO have also responded to concerns about the short changeover time from V1 to V2 of the bills. The cut-off date for when V1 will no longer be accepted has been extended to 6 November 2023. From that date onwards only V2 and V2.1 will be accepted.
Please note that The John M Hayes Partnership Limited is able to draft bill of costs in the formats accepted by the SCCO. Contact us on 0370 300 3780 in order to utilise our expertise and up to date knowledge of the assessment process.
