In September 2024, the Aviation Working Group (AWG) released model court rules for disputes governed by the Cape Town Convention. These rules may take the form of binding court rules, regulations, circulars, or practice directives and are available for adoption by the highest court or other regulators in the Contracting States. The model court rules set out key procedural items required for compliance with the Convention and its Aircraft Protocol.
The model court rules have been endorsed by the executive committee of AWG’s legal advisory panel.
