Section 73.17

The High Court may, on the request of any person claiming to be beneficially entitled to an interest in securities, issue a stop notice. A request for a stop notice must be made by filing— a draft stop notice; and written evidence which— identifies the securities in question; describes the applicant’s interest in the securities; and gives an address for service for the applicant. (A stop notice may also be included in a final charging order, by either the High Court or the County Court, under rule 73.10(8) or 73.10A(4).) (A sample form of stop notice is annexed to Practice Direction 73.) If a court officer considers that the request complies with paragraph (2), he will issue a stop notice. The applicant must serve copies of the stop notice and his written evidence on the person to whom the stop notice is addressed.
