CRIME — Practice — Forms — Substituted forms of notice of intention to apply for certain behaviour orders — Criminal Procedure Rules 2005 (SI 2005/384), r 50.3(3) (as substituted by Criminal Procedure (Amendment No 3) Rules 2007 (SI 2007/3662), Sch 1)

Practice Direction (Crime: Behaviour Order Application Forms); [2008] WLR (D) 98

Sup Ct: Sir Igor Judge P: 19 March 2008

The two forms to be used in connection with r 50.3 of the Criminal Procedure Rules 2005, as substituted, were set out. The amendment was to take effect on 7 April 2008.

SIR IGOR JUDGE P said that this practice direction amended Annex D of the consolidated criminal practice direction handed down by Lord Woolf CJ on 8 July 2002, as subsequently amended (see Practice Direction (Criminal Proceedings: Consolidation) [2002] 1 WLR 2870). It set out the two forms that were to be substituted for the existing forms used in connection with Pt 50 of the Criminal Procedure Rules 2005. These forms were required by r 50.3 where a prosecutor served a notice of intention to apply for an anti-social behaviour order or a serious crime prevention order if the defendant were convicted. The practice direction was to be added at the end of the list of included practice directions, in Annex A of the consolidated criminal practice direction.
