What is form MR01 (Particulars of a charge) and when do you use one? A charge granted by a company registered in the UK must be filed at Companies House unless an exception in section 859A(6) of the Companies Act 2006 (CA 2006) applies (see: Which company charges are registrable at Companies House?). Missing the filing window can have serious consequences, so it is essential to complete registration within the required period. Form MR01 (Particulars of a charge) is the Companies House document used to record a company charge where the charge is: created, or evidenced, by an instrument dated on or after 6 April 2013 made by a UK-registered company If a company charge is not created or evidenced by an instrument, you should instead use form MR08 (Particulars of a charge where there is no instrument) to register it at Companies House.

Serving the notice Administration of Estates Act 1925, s 1(3) states that on a person’s death the personal representatives step into the deceased’s place in relation to his real property, so far as any interest survives his death, and equally in relation to his personal property. It follows that a notice connected to that property should be directed to the deceased’s personal representative, irrespective of who holds that role, and irrespective of whether a grant of representation has yet been obtained, since the testator’s property vests in the executor from the moment of death, without any interval. Where the death is intestate, the administrator’s office is described as dative, because it arises only from the grant of administration. Accordingly, until a grant issues, the deceased’s property vests in the Public Trustee and not in the administrator, who acquires authority on the grant. Service on the personal representative is the proper course even before any grant...
