Abstract

From 31 July 2020 a new form of proceedings, group proceedings, have been available in the Court of Session. A group for this purpose comprises two or more individuals who each have a separate claim in the subject matter. Litigation has begun. Considering the relative novelty of the scheme in Scotland and that cases have now been commenced under it, examination of the purposes of group proceedings, the law and rules governing them, the proceedings to date and whether this new form of litigation appears set to address the mischief it was designed to counter is useful.
