The difference

Why a chambers keeps one desk for the whole file.

Matter

1. Open the matter without a specialist.

The clerk names the file. The desk keeps every page in the order it arrived.

Reading

2. The first reading stays with the file.

Move the page count and the brief shows how far the desk has gone.

Filing

3. The bundle leaves thin.

County filing, a dispute, or a contract. One screen, three ways in.

The platform

From intake to a numbered bundle.

Nothing here is a filing. It is a way to see the shape of a day in chambers.

  1. Name itContract, dispute, or a county bundle.
  2. Read itThe page count is a guide for the first pass.
  3. Set it downThe file stays on the same desk until it leaves.

"The afternoon light is for reading, not for hunting the file."

Ada Pell, clerk

"We stopped stacking open matters on the window ledge."

Jonah Hart, reader

"The corridor is long. The bundle should not be."
