(5) Court of Appeal decisions may be appealed to the House of Lords.

These basic routes of appeal also apply in relation to deputy judges and their equivalents, such as recorders sitting as county court circuit judges. Appeals from county court district judges (category (a) above) are the simplest administratively, with the claim remaining within the same court for the appeal, and simply being listed for the appeal before the judge. Appeals to High Court judges (categories (b) and (c)) may involve the appeal being heard in a new court. The Court of Appeal is located at the Royal Courts of Justice and its administrative office is known as the Civil Appeals Office.
