Use the current official form: This guide explains the role of Form F24 under Rule 9-6. Always check the current Rules and official form before filing, serving or relying on a deadline.
What Form F24 is for
Requests another party to admit specified facts or the authenticity of specified documents for the family case.
Key points
- Rule 9-6 applies where a response to family claim has been filed.
- Unless the court orders otherwise, a requested fact or document authenticity is deemed admitted if the receiving party does not serve a qualifying written response within 14 days.
- The notice should separate facts from documents and attach the documents whose authenticity is requested.
Practical steps
- List each fact clearly and separately.
- Attach copies of documents whose authenticity is requested.
- Serve F24 on the party.
- Track the 14-day response period and any written denial or refusal.
Common mistakes
- Using vague compound statements that are hard to admit or deny.
- Assuming an admission decides every legal issue.
- Ignoring a Notice to Admit that requires a on-time written response.
