Registration can:

Find out about what can be registered and registration requirements in chapter 62 of the Court of Session Rules.
Any applications for judgments made under chapter 62 of the Court of Session Rules should be addressed to the manager of the Chancery and Judicial Registers, quoting the rule the application is being made under.
