Searches for documents
47C Searches for documents
A person may ask a registrar to search for, and allow the person to inspect, a document filed in a P&E Court proceeding.
If the person making the request is not a party, or a representative of a party, to the proceeding in which the document was filed, the person must pay any prescribed fee for the search or inspection.
Subject to any court order restricting access to the file or document, or the file or document being required for the court’s use, the registrar must comply with the request, unless there is not enough information for the registrar to be able to comply with the request.
The registrar may, on payment of the prescribed fee, issue a certificate of the result of the search for the document.
