Rescission of Administrative Notices 10 and 16 and Practice Direction 63

  • January 15, 2024

Effective January 15 Administrative Notices 10 and 16 and Practice Direction 63 have been rescinded.

Administrative Notice 10 (Late Application Records; Reinstatements to Chambers List) describes how late application records and applications that have been struck off the Chambers list will be dealt with at an administrative level. 

Administrative Notice 16 (Vexatious Litigants – Request for Leave to File Process or Documents) sets out the requirements that a vexatious litigant requesting leave to file process or documents must meet.

The requirements outlined in Administrative Notice 10 and 16 have been incorporated into the Supreme Court Rules.

Practice Direction 63 (Trial Management Conferences, Trial Briefs and Trial Certificates – Transitional Guidance) is being rescinded because the transition period has ended. The trial certificate form has been revised to account for trials where no trial management conference was required.

This Rescission applies to all Supreme Court Registries in BC.
