KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Notice of Transfer
A notice of transfer is a criminal procedure used mainly in cases involving serious or complex fraud, and in some proceedings involving child witnesses.
It allows the prosecution to send a case directly to the Crown Court without first obtaining judicial approval or going through committal proceedings before magistrates.
This procedure is intended to speed up the handling of particularly serious or sensitive criminal cases.
The process is recognized within the Criminal Procedure Rules.
