Vancouver Supreme Court divorce cause books and case record cards

  • GR-3737
  • Series
  • 1946-1994

The series consists of cause books and case record cards for divorces in the Vancouver Supreme Court between 1946 and 1994. Cause books and case records cards can be used to determine a volume and folio number, which can then be used to obtain a copy of the final divorce order. Cause books and case record cards are also often the only source of information for divorce cases that were dropped and never completed, as no final order would have been granted, and case files would have been destroyed.

Cause books were used by the courts until approximately the mid-1970s. They were replaced by case record cards, which were used until the courts turned to digital systems in the 1990s. Cause books are arranged chronologically, and case record cards are arranged by case number. Cause book and case record card entries typically include the date of filing, the date and place of marriage, the names of the parties and their solicitors, and an account of the case proceedings. The records were scheduled for full retention under Court Services ORCS (schedule 100152) 53200-20.
