New Supreme Court Civil and Family Rules

On July 1, 2010, new B.C. Supreme Court civil and family rules and revised schedules of fees came into force.

Information about the rules – including forms, fees, fact sheets, tables of concordance and links to other online resources – is available on this website.

In addition, civil rules resources for the profession are available here and self-help information for the public is here. Family rules resources for the profession are available here and self-help information for the public is here.

The new rules make the civil and family justice systems more responsive, accessible and efficient.  They were developed through extensive research and broad consultation and were finalized by the Rules Revision Committee, a committee of senior judges, and experienced private and public sector lawyers.
