Civil Litigation
Nine: Allocation, Case Management & Directions
1. Allocation Questionnaires CPR 26.3 STEP ONE: filling out the AQ.
CRP 26.3(6A) Date to complete and file AQ may NOT be varied by agreement between the parties.

Court also has discretion to subsequently reallocate a claim to a different track [CPR 26.10] Fill out Form N244 if you want reallocation STEP THREE: Court serves Notice of Allocation [CPR 26.9]
