EPISODE INFORMATION:
This episode looks at the pre-trial civil procedure including:

• How a defendant can respond to a claim
• Track allocation of a civil claim
• Rules on disclosure

This episode is also available as a video on YouTube.

(*CORRECTION*: In the podcast I mention that both parties file a trial bundle. However, this was a mistake. Only the claimant files a trial bundle, not both parties).
