Explanatory note

Part 66, Rule 1A, of the Supreme Court Rules prevents a subpoena from being issued on the request of an unrepresented litigant except with the leave of the Supreme Court. The object of these Rules is to enable a registrar of the Supreme Court to exercise the Supreme Court’s power to grant such leave. These Rules also ensure that certain expressions that are defined in Part 37 (Subpoenas) have the same meanings outside that Part as they have within that Part.
