Norwegian term or phrase: hovedforhandling
I am translating the Bar Association's annual report.
One topic concerns the procedures required for obtaining a license to practice law in Norway.
There are a required number of cases. In addition...
En av sakene burde være en hovedforhandling eller muntlig behandling etter småkravsprosessen.

What is the British term for hovedforhandling?
