Family court registry and case management team manuals and standard operation procedures

Zane Collins made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice

The request was partially successful.

From: Zane Collins

Dear Ministry of Justice,

I request all manuals and standard operating procedures of the family court registry and case management and scheduling team for the following parts:

1 - When a without notice application is filed.
2 - When an on-notice application is filed.
3 - Ways to serve the respondents with notices, judgments, judge's minutes and all other related.
4 - Standards operating procedures of allocating hearings.

All manuals and SOP's of the family court registry, case management team, and scheduling team.

I need urgently part 1 and 2 and I can wait for the other parts 3 & 4 and other manuals.

My request probably needs to be forwarded to the ministry of courts instead, if yes please do this accordingly.

Yours faithfully,

Zane Collins

Dear Mr Collins,

Thank you for your Official Information Act request of 16 February 2019.

Specifically you have requested all manuals and standard operating procedures of the family court registry and case management and scheduling team for the following parts:

1 - When a without notice application is filed.
2 - When an on-notice application is filed.
3 - Ways to serve the respondents with notices, judgments, judge's minutes and all other related.
4 - Standards operating procedures of allocating hearings.

Your request, as currently framed will require substantial collation as there is a large volume of documents for each query.

In order to ensure that you receive the appropriate information, can you please clarify whether you are seeking this information for any particular proceeding in the Family Court i.e the Care of Children Act for example.

Please let us know before 7th March 2019.
