LONDON, Jan. 26 -- The government of the United Kingdom issued the following news:

Civil Application Fixer 

We are launching a new digital form to replace the previous email address applicationfixer@justice.gov.uk

This service applies to: 

*

Merits/Means Decisions

*

Prior Authority Decisions

*

Exceptional and Complex Cases Teams (including Exceptional Case Funding (ECF) decisions)

Providers should use Civil Application Fixer if:

*

the initial decision made by the LAA was incorrect, or

*

the decision failed to consider the information provided.

Civil Contingency Fixer  

We are also launching a new Civil Contingency Fixer service which relates specifically to work granted under contingency.

This service applies to:

*

Merits/Means Decisions

*

Prior Authority Decisions

*

Exceptional and Complex Cases Teams (including Exceptional Case Funding (ECF) decisions)

Providers should use Civil Contingency Fixer if:

*

coverage granted differs from contingency notifications or CCMS.

*

an amendment is required but no certificate has been received via CCMS.

*

coverage or party details are incorrect or missing.

Why is it happening now?

Benefits of these new services are:

*

one contact point for Civil Application and Civil Contingency issues.

*

no need to call Customer Services Team-simply submit your request via the MOJ form.

*

operated by experienced caseworkers who will review your submission and resolve issues as quickly as possible.
