The Court of Appeal (Civil Division) – Live streaming of court hearings

How and why are court cases being streamed online?

Most cases from the Court of Appeal (Civil Division) are live-streamed on the judiciary’s YouTube channel.
Live-streaming of selected cases began in 2019 to improve public access to, and understanding of, the work of the courts. We are working towards making it possible for all appropriate cases to be live streamed.

Carl v Hawkins & Ors (external link)

By Appellant’s Notice filed on 28 May the 9th Defendant appeals paragraph 11 of an order dated 7 May 2025, (amended on 19 September 2025) disallowing his costs.

The dispute involved ownership of a vintage motorcar and the alleged misappropriation of eight cars by 13 defendants. Although the 9th Defendant avoided liability in the main action, the Judge denied him costs due to deliberate non-disclosure and non-cooperation. At the consequentials hearing, the 9th Defendant sought costs against the Claimant for failing to follow the pre-action protocol. However, the Judge held that proceeding without one was reasonable and proportionate.
