Of course it makes perfect sense. After all courts are only for Russian Oligarchs and multinational contract disputes. The travel time from Moscow to Heathrow is only three hours by private jet. Not sure how long a Yacht with helicopter transfers takes, though.

As for somebody living in Westmoreland, or Sedbergh, or Hawes, they don't need courts.

Apparently the oiks up North do sometimes have some sort of disputes over some ghastly little issues involving their houses or somesuch but one has asked one's clerk to organise some sort of online court or the like where we can let them put their case on Facebook and the winner is the one with the most "likes" (I think that's what they call it). Sounds terribly wearisome to me, but we have to keep the plebs happy.

Oh look, it's 3:20pm. Counsel, I'm sure you agree it's getting rather late in the afternoon now and one surely wouldn't want to go on too long, so I suggest now would be a reasonable time for an adjournment, what. Let's resume first thing tomorrow morning at 11:00am. Court rise.
