Exceptional case funding, or ECF, applications are made when a particular case falls outside the usual legal aid scope but the conducting solicitor or client believes there is evidence supporting a requirement to provide funding. Generally this is because the solicitor or client believes a failure to do so would breach Convention rights (as in the Human Rights Act 1998) or enforceable EU rights of an individual to legal services.
