This Act was originally a Commonwealth Act—the Seat of Government Supreme Court Act 1933 A1933-34 (Cwlth).
It was renamed the Australian Capital Territory Supreme Court Act 1933 by the Statute Law Revision Act 1950
(Cwlth).
It was later renamed the Supreme Court Act 1933 by the A.C.T. Supreme Court (Transfer) Act 1992
(Cwlth).
The Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988
(Cwlth), s 34 (2) converted some Commonwealth Acts in force in the ACT into ACT enactments. This allowed the ACT Legislative Assembly to amend and repeal the laws. This Act was converted into an ACT enactment on 1 July 1992 under the Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988
(Cwlth), s 34 (3).

6 Expired transitional or validating provisions
This Act may be affected by transitional or validating provisions that have expired. The expiry does not affect any continuing operation of the provisions (see Legislation Act 2001
, s 88 (1)).
Expired provisions are removed from the republished law when the expiry takes effect and are listed in the amendment history using the abbreviation ‘exp' followed by the date of the expiry.
To find the expired provisions see the version of this Act before the expiry took effect. The ACT legislation register has point-in-time versions of this Act.
