Actions Set Down For Hearing
Acceptance of Sum Paid Into Court
In Satisfaction of a Claim
Practitioners are advised that a Court Order for
payment out is no longer required where a Notice of
Acceptance of money lodged in Court is served pursuant
to Order 22 rule 4, as inserted by R.S.C. (No. 1 of 1970), in
an action which has been set down for hearing. Prior to
making application to the Accountant, however, practi-
tioners must inform the Chief Registrar in writing that the
Action has been settled and may be taken out of the
relevant list for trial, quoting both Record Numb er and
List Number. A copy of such written notification should
be lodged with the Accountant when making an applica-
tion for payment out.

Having regard to the decision of Mr. Justice Ga n n on in
R. -v- R. and The Attorney General,
delivered on the 16th
of February, 1984 the attention of practitioners is drawn
to the following practice direction.
In any case where relief is sought in The High Court,
under any of the above-named Acts, the Summo ns shall
be returnable before the Master in the ordinary way and
thereafter shall be put in the list before the Judge sitting
for Family Law on a Friday Motion day.
The parties must on that occasion attend and submit
such evidence or arguments as they see fit as to whether
the case is one appropriate for The High Court to exercise
its jurisdiction under one or other of the above Acts, or
whether it is a case which should be remitted to the Circuit
Court or District Court. A decision will then be made on
that issue and, depending upon the nature of that
decision, the case will be listed for hearing. Such listing
will not determine the appropriate scale of costs, if any, to
be awarded, which will be subject to the provisions of
Section 17(4) of Courts Act, 1981.
