407: How to begin, and procedure for, appeal to High Court

You could also call this:

“Steps for starting and going through a High Court appeal”

You can find out how to start an appeal to the High Court and what happens during the appeal in special rules called regulations. These regulations are made under section 451 of the Social Security Act 2018. They explain the steps you need to follow to begin your appeal and what will happen during the process.

The regulations also cover other important things related to appeals. Once you’ve started your appeal following these rules, the rest of the process will usually follow the normal rules of the court. But remember, the special regulations for appeals can change some of these court rules.
