Documentary Inquest
Sometimes also called a Rule 23 inquest, is one where evidence is:
- admitted in writing
- not disputed
This avoids the need for witnesses whose evidence is uncontroversial to attend in person.
A coroner will decide the facts based only on written evidence.
After closing the inquest the coroner will inform the interested persons of the determination, findings and conclusion in writing.
