| The slip rule is a process by which the court may correct an accidental slip or omission in a judgment or order (see: CPR 40.12 and CPR PD 40B, paras 4.1 and 4.5). CPR 40.12 provides that the ‘court may at any time correct an accidental slip or omission in a judgment or order’. ‘Any time’ means just that i.e. that the power is not confined to extant orders ( IC v RC —note this is a family case but the court was considering an identical provision to CPR 40.12 in the Family Procedure Rules). | ||
