Court context
Courts serving York (plain H1, no italic emphasis — only the home page H1 carries italics)
York holds High Court District Registry status. 'York' appears in column 1 of the Schedule to the Civil Courts Order 2014 (SI 2014/819), and it is still present in the latest revised (consolidated) version of the Schedule — it was not removed by the Civil Courts (Amendment) Order 2017 (which omitted only Llangefni, Bolton, Bury, Kendal and Oldham) nor by the 2019 amendment.
CROSS-CHECK FAILED / DISCREPANCY: the current HMCTS find-court-tribunal listing for York County Court and Family Court does NOT use the phrase 'District Registry' anywhere on the page. Its 'This location handles' block lists adoption, bankruptcy, childcare arrangements, divorce hearings, domestic abuse, 'High Court cases – serious or high profile criminal or civil law cases', housing, money claims and benefits. The district registry status therefore rests on the statutory instrument alone, not on the HMCTS listing. Recommend wording such as 'York is a High Court District Registry under the Civil Courts Order 2014' rather than anything implying HMCTS advertises it as such.
