Expansion of the King's Bench Filing Digital Service (FDS) to include Civil Justice Chambers in the Pilot Location of Edmonton

Jul 7, 2023

We are pleased to announce the expansion of the King's Bench Filing Digital Service to include Civil Justice Chambers in the pilot location of Edmonton.

Effective July 17th, a pilot program will commence as part of an expansion of the existing Civil King's Bench Filing Digital Service. This initial release will introduce filings for Civil Justice Chambers in the Edmonton location for hearings scheduled on or after August 1st.

This pilot program will enable lawyers to submit an Application for Civil Justice Chambers, accompanied by supporting materials and the mandatory proposed form of Order. Reply materials will also be accepted. Materials will be digitally delivered to the Justice. Orders that are granted in the provided form will be digitally signed by the Justice and made available to counsel through the digital service.

Counsel submitting material for Civil Justice Chambers in Edmonton for August 1st and beyond are strongly encouraged to utilize the King's Bench Filing Digital Service for this purpose.

Please note that the submission process for adjournments, restoring your matter to the list, ex-parte applications and users who are not yet able to use the digital service will remain unchanged in the initial release.
