On this page you can watch live the hearings of the UK Supreme Court, the final court of appeal in the UK for all civil cases and for criminal cases from England, Wales and Northern Ireland, but not Scotland. It hears appeals on points of law of the greatest public importance, and cases involving devolution matters in Scotland and Wales.

The court normally sits between 10.30 am and 4 pm during legal terms.

The Supreme Court sits in the former Middlesex Guildhall, on the western side of London's Parliament Square. The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, the court of final appeal for the UK overseas territories and Crown dependencies, also sits in the Supreme Court building.

The Supreme Court is the only British court where hearings are televised live.
