Pleadings and hearings
How are merits hearings
usually organised and what is
their average duration?
Just over half of respondents said that the
average duration of the final merits hearings
was 3-5 days. Civil lawyers have traditionally
claimed that their hearings are shorter than
common lawyers’ hearings – the survey
confirms this to be true: 31% of civil lawyers
said the average duration of their hearings was
1-2 days, compared to only 9% of common
lawyers. Similarly, 34% of common lawyers,
compared to only 12% of civil lawyers,
said the average duration was 6-10 days.
