LEAP allows you to access several Criminal Crown Court forms.

Interim Bills	If the Trial Type field of the fixed fee is set to Cracked Trial, it is an interim bill. A LP3 Form will be needed. The total of the invoice will be 75% of the Cracked Trial fixed fee.
Final Bills	It will be a Final Bill where the Trial Type field of the fixed fee is set to anything other than Crack Trial. A LP3A form will be needed. The total of the invoice is the value of the fixed fee, excluding any other fees that have been billed in the past. If this is a final bill and there has been no interim bill processed, you will need to use the LF1 form.
