Supreme Court Rules 2000

A judgment or order is not to be enforced, and an appeal instituted from a judgment or an order is not to be heard, until the judgment or order has been entered in accordance with this Part and filed, unless the Court or a judge otherwise orders.

A memorandum or note, signed by the associate, of an order made by a judge together with an affidavit of non-compliance with that order is sufficient authority for the entry of judgment pursuant to that order in consequence of the failure to comply with it.

An order that is not a final order is not required to be entered and filed unless – a party to the proceeding is acting in person; or the order is to be served on a person not a party to the proceeding; or the order is for committal, attachment or by way of an injunction; or the order is an order nisi for relief similar to certiorari, mandamus, prohibition, procedendo or quo warranto or an order absolute instead of the issue of such an order; or the order is an order nisi for the grant of a writ of habeas corpus or an order absolute instead of the issue of such a writ; or the Court or a judge so orders.

If an order is made that is not required to be entered and filed, the record of proceedings maintained under rule 804 is sufficient authority for the doing of the act ordered.
