Instructions
on using the Manitoba court page
(provided
by CBC's Melanie Verhaeghe )
1) On the first screen, click on court registry.
2) On the
second screen, on the left hand side, click on Name Search (assuming you don't
know file numbers and are searching to see if the company or person you are researching
has any lawsuits on-going).
Also, this page will tell you what court records
are available.
3) On third screen, enter company name or person's last name
in the Surname/company space. In Given name slot, use the person's full name but
I would suggest you also search using the person's first name initial only. Sometimes
names are spelled wrong, or off by a few letters. Also, if nothing comes up, try
different spellings of the last name (humans enter the names, so mistakes happen)..
Also, some codes you'll see on the pages:
QB - Queen's Bench
CR - criminal
CI - civil
SC - Small claim
FD - family division
File numbers will
look like this: CI-00-01-18547
The CI - means civil lawsuit, 00 - means the
year ie. 2000, the 01 and the 18547 are locators for the file clerks.
4) Under
the search results page: you will get a list of results, the file numbers are
on the left hand side. And they should appear in highlighted green. Click on the
file number. Unfortunately, the file contents (reasons for the lawsuit) are not
on-line, but at least it will tell you who is suing who. And it will most often
tell you who the lawyers are (and if they're highlighted green) then you can click
on it, and get the phone number and address of the lawyer. DE- means defendant,
PL - plaintiff. - For full file details, the lawyers
will often provide that for you, or you have to go to the court house with the
file number and ask to see it on the main level of the York Avenue court in Winnipeg.
They are all public info.. You can read them, photocopy them, but you can't leave
the building with them.
Les instructions
pour les dossiers judiciares au Québec
(par Daniel Tremblay de
Radio-Canada) Il est maintenant possible de consulter
gratuitement les rôles de pratique civile de toutes les cours du Québec
sur le site www.azimut.soquij.qc.ca/.
Il suffit d'obtenir un mot de passe et d'entrer dans
le plumitif. Une fois rendue dans le plumitif, il faut cliquer sur "civil"
et ensuite cliquer sur "pratique". Ensuite, on a juste à ajouter
la date de la journée et le district où nous voulons effectuer nos
recherches. Il vaut mieux demander le rôle
détaillé pour obtenir les informations de base pour travailler.
