Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to conduct a review of the Sheriff Court Fees Order 2018 to make self-litigation more accessible to disabled people.
• Have you ever wanted to lodge an application to self-litigate but been unable to afford the court fees set out by the Scottish Government?
• Do you feel that self-litigation is a constitutional right?
• Do the current rules for fee exemption mean that some groups find it more difficult to self-litigate than others?
