Form F19: Notice of Judicial Case Conference

How to request a Judicial Case Conference in a BC Supreme Court family case and the key 30-day and 7-day financial-disclosure deadlines.

Use the current form: A JCC is a conference, not a trial. Rule 7-1 also contains exceptions and situations where applications may proceed before a JCC.

How to request a JCC

Rule 7-1(7) says a party requests a Judicial Case Conference by filing Form F19.

The 30-day service rule

The requesting party must serve all parties with the filed F19 at least 30 days before the JCC. If a Form F8 is required, the requesting party also serves the F8 and the relevant income documents at that time.

The 7-day F8 filing deadline

A requesting party who must provide F8 disclosure files the original F8 and relevant income documents at least 7 days before the JCC. Other parties who require F8 disclosure also serve and file their F8 material at least 7 days before the conference.

Attendance

Unless the court orders otherwise, each party and the party’s lawyer must attend. A request to be exempted from attendance is made by Form F19.1 under Rule 7-1(13.1).
