6. Court proceedings

One of the parties may want to start court proceedings. How will this tie in with these procedures?

As we have pointed out, HM Land Registry has no option but to refer a dispute arising out of an objection to the tribunal. As soon as we discover that one of the parties has commenced court proceedings, we will treat the case as a matter which cannot be resolved by agreement and it will be formally referred to the tribunal.

It is likely that the tribunal will adjourn the proceedings to await the outcome of the court proceedings.
