The federal courts in Canada, which include the Supreme Court of Canada, are constituted pursuant to section 101 of the Constitution Act, 1867. These courts are statutory courts; they do not exercise an inherent jurisdiction. Resort to these courts should be rare and should always conform to a strict interpretation of the Federal Courts Act. When in doubt, conduct additional research.

Unlike clerks in service to the provincial superior courts, registry officials at the Federal Court of Appeal and Federal Court may be expected to be competent, diligent, and helpful.

Telephone numbers for the federal courts, along with registry addresses, may be found here: https://www.cas-satj.gc.ca/en/operations/numbers.shtml.

General inquiries for the Federal Court of Appeal and the Federal Court should be made to: reception.reception@cas-satj.gc.ca.

The rules for both courts may be found at: https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-98-106/. Be sure, however, to also consult the latest edition of Canadian Federal Courts Practice, which is available electronically on LexisNexis.
