@HMCTSgovuk Is there any way you can assist me with the issue of a Grant of Letters of Administration made on 23 September 2022? App was acknowledged on 14 November with a further 8 week timescale but I have a property sale with a chain at risk of falling through!

@GNRailUK Hello - could you let me know when the work is expected to be finished on the line between King’s Lynn and Cambridge? Will the 06.10 service from King’s Lynn be back running from tomorrow or has this been removed permanently? Thank you

In an interview in today's Telegraph, the Justice Secretary proposes to enable ministers to 'correct' court judgments that they consider 'incorrect'. This raises profound constitutional concerns, as I explain in this short video. https://t.co/8hsAn1wkWY

I am aware of some confusion on various forums about where legal professionals send their paperwork (#wills and #IHT forms) for grant applications; paper applications (on forms PA1A & PA1P) get sent to Newcastle DPR, but online applications the paperwork goes to Harlow. #probate

[Chris Claxton-Shirley @CCShirl_]

@HMCTSgovuk Thank you - I will do this now

[Chris Claxton-Shirley @CCShirl_]

@HMCTSgovuk Good morning! Is there any way you can assist me with an issue I am having after applying for. Grant of Probate on 9 November? We have been waiting several weeks for a form to be sent by the probate registry but nothing has been received. Many thanks in advance!

@cambridgebs Hi there! Please could you confirm your requirements where a Grant is needed for closure of accounts in an estate? Do you need wet signatures on your withdrawal forms? Is a letter of authority with electronic signatures acceptable? Many thanks!
