What to bring
Papers to bring
- The fresh case, complete and ready for filing
- Proof of the urgency with its date: a demolition, auction, sale or eviction notice, or the order about to take effect
Where to go
Handed in with the fresh case at the filing counter, so the registry can list it early; in some courts the advocate also mentions it before the judge.
Fee
No fee is usually charged for a letter of urgency; court fee goes on the case itself.
Good to know
- Give the real reason and the exact date of the threatened act: courts frown on urgency claimed without cause.
- Ask at the filing counter when the case will be listed.
Papers and fees can change. Check with the office before you go. Guidance only, not yet reviewed by a lawyer.
Stamp paper
Court fee and welfare stamps, where needed, are affixed as the court office directs.
