Courts in the United Kingdom

Courts in the United Kingdom
The court systems in operation in Scotland, Northern Ireland, England, and Wales have much in common, although the procedures and certain elements of the law have evolved differently. Arrows show either the course an appeal will follow from one court to another, or the progression of a case if it is felt to be too complex or serious for a lower-level court. No indication is given here of the levels of the different courts represented in relation to one another.
