Summary of Chapter 2

Chapter 2 sets out rules about:

*     the form of application you must file to start a case in a court, respond to an application or seek orders in the course of a case;

*     the documents you must file with an application or response; and

Before starting a case, you must comply with the court's pre-action procedures (see subrule 1.05(1) and Schedule 1).

The rules in Chapter 1 relating to the court's general powers apply in all cases and override all other provisions in these Rules.

A word or expression used in this Chapter may be defined in the dictionary at the end of these Rules.
