On the filing of a Form 1, the Registry Manager must fix a date:

(a)

for a case assessment conference or procedural hearing that is as near as practicable to 28 days after the application was filed; or

(b)

if an earlier date is fixed for the hearing of an Application in a Case (Form 2) filed with the Form 1 — for a procedural hearing on the same day.

Note
Under subrule 5.05 (4), a Registrar may, in exceptional circumstances, allow a Form 2 to be listed for urgent hearing. Chapter 12 sets out the requirements for case assessment conferences and procedural hearings.
