Commencement of proceedings in Jersey law

An Order of Justice is one of three types of originating process used in the Royal Court of the Island of Jersey (part of the British Isles). It is a combination of the originating process (in England & Wales, for example a "writ") and a statement of claim. The other types of originating process are the [simple] Summons and the Representation.
