Appeal—order of Supreme Court
3970 Appeal—order of Supreme Court
This rule applies if an order is made by the Supreme Court on an appeal from a decision or award of the Magistrates Court in an arbitration.
A party may file a sealed copy of the order in the Magistrates Court.
The Legislation Act provides for things to be done as soon as possible if no time is fixed (see s 151B).
If the order has effect as a decision or award in favour of a party, the decision or award must be recorded by the registrar of the Magistrates Court as if it were a decision or award of that court.
If the order requires an award be made in favour of a party, the Magistrates Court must make the award.
If the judgment directs a re-hearing or further hearing of the arbitration, the registrar of the Magistrates Court must—
set a date for directions; and
tell the parties the date for directions.
The Magistrates Court must make any other direction, decision or award that is necessary to give effect to the order.
