Variation or cancellation in foreign country
79E Variation or cancellation in foreign country
If the registrar of the court that registered a foreign restraining order has reasonable grounds for believing that an order varying the restraining order is in force under the corresponding law of the foreign country, the registrar is to register the variation.
The variation takes effect on the day on which it is registered.
If a registered foreign restraining order is cancelled by a court of the foreign country, the registration of the order is cancelled on the day on which the court of registration becomes aware of the cancellation.
If a variation of a registered foreign restraining order is registered, or the order is cancelled, the registrar of the court of registration must —
notify the applicant for registration of the original order, unless the registrar knows that the applicant is already aware of the variation or cancellation; and
notify the Commissioner of Police and give the Commissioner a copy of the order of variation or cancellation if one is available.
