It is with great sadness that we have learned
tonight of the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Along with the nation, we mourn the loss of
our Monarch and, as a mark of respect, all courts and tribunals in Scotland will be adjourned on Friday 9 September, following the
conclusion of any essential business.
Flags will be lowered at Scottish Courts and
Tribunals buildings and the Lord President has sent condolences to the Royal
Family on behalf of the judiciary in Scotland. A statement from the Lord
President is available here
From Monday 12 September the majority of court
and tribunal business will continue during the period of mourning.
Updates on any changes to scheduled business
and operations during the mourning period will be published on our website here.
