Registry Contact
For public access to Court files and information about Court procedure, you may contact your local Registry office. Offices are available across Canada.
Access to Court Documents: As a general rule, all Court documents are a matter of public record unless a legislative provision or Court order prohibits public access. However, a court order prohibiting access to material in a file may be granted upon the motion of a party if the Court is satisfied that the material sought to be filed should be treated as confidential notwithstanding the public interest in open and accessible court proceedings.
Important: Registry officers are not allowed to provide legal advice to litigants. You should contact a lawyer, a Legal Aid Office in your area or a community legal clinic for legal advice. For additional information about services provided by the Registry, please go to Self-Represented Litigants.
