The Rules of the High Court 2009 brought in a new regime for the conduct of Civil Litigation on the Isle of Man. At the time, His Honour Deemster Doyle, sent out a clear message in his Judgment in Howell v DHSS ORD 09/24 6 October 2009 what the Judiciary expected:

Parties to legal proceedings and their advisers will have to wake up to the new reality of civil litigation in the 21st century. More and more, courts will engage in active and robust case management.
