In the County Court, the term Part 7 claims refers to what?

• A. Part 7 claims
• B. CCMCC claims
• C. High Court claims
• D. Administrative claims

Answer: (A)

Part 7 claims are the standard civil actions brought in the County Court under Part 7 of the Civil Procedure Rules. They represent the ordinary process for most disputes: the claimant issues a claim form with a detailed particulars of claim, the defendant can respond with a defence, and the case moves through disclosure, witness statements, and, if needed, a trial. This route is the usual path for money and non-money claims that aren’t handled by the simplified routes.

The other options describe different streams: CCMCC handles money claims via the central Money Claims Centre, a separate online/centralized route; High Court claims can also use Part 7, but the term here is used in the County Court context to denote the regular county court civil actions; Administrative claims isn’t a recognized category in this framework.
