<!-- TRIAGE LEFT OUT
Preparing for trial requires careful planning and organization as well as being mindful of the many deadlines set out in the rules of court. All deadlines count back from the first day of trial (not the last or any day in between) and should be considered well in advance of the actual deadline. The main deadlines in a Provincial Court proceeding are as follows:
**the witnesses (names and contact information) you intend to call at trial, and a time estimate for each witness’ testimony.
At the trial preparation conference, a judge can do any of the things mentioned in Rule 112, including giving directions about time and date, procedure, evidence, how views of a child will be heard, expert witnesses, exchange and inspection of documents, or any other direction that would expedite the trial.
