PRACTICE DIRECTION 45 - MODEL ORDERS - COMPANIES' CREDITORS ARRANGEMENT ACT
Chief Justice Hinkson has today issued Practice Direction 45, Model Orders - Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act. Superior courts across Canada have coordinated to standardize orders made under federal insolvency legislation, and to update the standard forms of orders from time to time to reflect developments in the law. Practice Direction 45 prescribes three standard forms of orders. The first is the standard form of order for initial orders made in CCAA proceedings commenced in British Columbia and replaces the former model initial order prescribed by PD 29 which is rescinded. The other two standard forms of order are for use in cross-border CCAA proceedings where the main proceedings were commenced elsewhere.
