Canadian Guide to the Uniform Preparation of Judgment

Approved in September 2002 by the Canadian Judicial Council (Press release, September 30, 2002), this guide replaces the Standards for the Preparation, Distribution and Citation of Canadian Judgments in Electronic Form (CJC, 1996). Like its predecessor, it provides Canadian courts with guidelines for preparing and distributing their electronic judgments..
