Rule 147 Procedure where appointment of litigation friend comes to an end – for P
This rule applies where P ceases to be a person who lacks capacity to conduct the proceedings himself but continues to lack capacity in relation to the matter or matters to which the application relates.
The litigation friend’s appointment continues until it is brought to an end by a court order.
An application for an order under paragraph (2) may be made by—
P;
his litigation friend; or
any other person who is a party to the proceedings.
The applicant must serve a copy of the application notice seeking an order under this rule on all other parties to the proceedings as soon as practicable and in any event within 21 days of the date on which it was issued.
Where the court makes an order under this rule, P must provide his address for service to all other parties to the proceedings.
