Final month to access unclaimed court money
Legislation changes affect how the the Court Funds Office (CFO) holds dormant funds.
From 1 June 2024 any account that has been held dormant within the CFO for 30 years or more will be surrendered and any future right to claim the funds will be extinguished.
If you believe that you, or someone you are responsible for, may be eligible to claim an account held by the CFO for 30 years or more, submit your claim before June.

This week the Lady Chief Justice announced the creation of a new Transparency and Open Justice Board.
The board will lead and coordinate the promotion of transparency and open justice across the courts and tribunals in England and Wales and will work in partnership with HMCTS and the Ministry of Justice.
