Introduction
Apply to get a case management order if you need an order to move your court case along or address some specific concern. These orders aren't for orders about the main issues in your case.
Case management (procedural) orders can be made at any time during your case.
Case management orders can be either with notice or without notice. There are different forms for each type.
Do I need a case management order with notice or without notice?

If you don't know which form to fill out, please talk to duty counsel, a lawyer, or any free legal service.
Get legal help
It's a good idea to get some legal help before you use this guide. If you can't afford a lawyer, you can get legal help in other ways, including:
- Lawyer Referral Service
- free (pro bono) legal clinics
- family duty counsel
- family advice lawyers
- family justice counsellors
Staff at Justice Access Centres in Abbotsford, Nanaimo, Surrey, Victoria, and Vancouver can also answer your questions and help you fill out forms.
