Nanaimo Supreme Court orders and judgments
- GR-2308
- Series
- 1900-1999; 2002
The series consists of Nanaimo Supreme Court civil orders and reasons for judgment, 1900-2002. Civil court orders are the formal expression of the rulings of the court, whereas the reasons for judgment are the explanation that the court gives at the conclusion of a hearing, explaining why an order is being made.
The civil court orders date from 1900 to 1994 and contain divorce orders interfiled throughout. The orders are generally arranged by volume and folio number. The orders were originally added to a shannon file volume in file date order and given folio numbers from 1 to 200 or 300. Each volume is indexed.
Reasons for judgment, filed between 1985 and 2002, were not intermingled, but rather were housed separately in accordion files. They are arranged by court file number within each folder.
