Auto response states that documents over 50 pages will nto be printed, will have to print and pop down to the courts sharpish:
Please consider this list carefully before continuing with your email correspondence with the court. Any document filed by email which is excluded by this list will treated as having not been filed.
- A request to issue a specified or unspecified claim as these claims are excluded from application by email
- When printed out, the email and any attachments, including any document embedded in another, together with sufficient copies for service on the required parties, the process or accompanying attachments do not exceed 50 pages (excluding Local Authorities, Cafcass and Cafcass CYMRU).
- A page is one side, therefore 50 pages equals 25 pieces of paper printed on both sides
- The total size of an email, including any attachments, must not exceed 25 megabytes.
- A party must not use more than one email to take any step in a claim which requires a document or documents to be filed.

Do you have a
- telephone or video; OR
- in person hearing?
Are you sure the hearing is in person?
I would presume an autoresponse hasnt been updated. If this is a TELEPHONE hearing, then paper will be no help to anyone
BEfore rushing off, think around the topic, and find out for sure whats happening in *your* claim.3 -
There has not been any guidance on the type of hearing as yet, it just states that a date and time will be notified in due course.
I think for my own sanity and peace of mind I will just get a copy down there sharpish, all bases are covered then2 -

Nonono. Not needed in thse times. Everything is being done electronically by the courts temporarily at the moment; no printing will happen at your end or at the court's end because your electronic evidence will be made available to the Judge, who is probably sitting at home.
The Auto-response hasn't been updated.
STOP PRINTING.
STOP.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

There is also zero chance the court will need to print anything. This is pointless.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Arrived at the court to be stopped in my tracks due to covid and social distancing.
Explained why I was there to the clerk and explained that I had sent via email but thought it best to drop in the paper copies due to what I'd read.
She told me that they could not accept anything by hand due to covid and proceeded to ring through to the court who confirmed that even during these times, the 50 page print out rule still applies and that I needed to go away and post it back to them.
They confirmed that as I had emailed before the 4pm cut off and had visited, the paperwork being slightly late will be fine.
Just got home and either need to lie down or spend some time on the punch bag.
And breath.0
