Usually, Chambers takes place from 10AM until whenever the list is completed. Most contested chambers applications (applications where both sides are present and make their arguments to the Justice or Applications Judge) should take about 20 minutes, with each side speaking for 10 minutes. If lawyers or self-represented persons think their applications will take more than 20 minutes in total to be heard, they should schedule a “Special Chambers” date. Special Chambers allow for longer hearings. Last updated: September 2022
