If you've found a mistake in an order that has been entered in court, whether an order of the Provincial Court or of the Supreme Court, you must apply to court to correct the order. Applications like these are limited to clerical errors or omissions; applying to correct an order is not a short cut to an appeal of the order! Applications to correct orders are usually limited to things such as misspellings, incorrect dates or bits of the oral order that were left out of the written order.

You <span class="noglossary">will</span> have to prepare a Notice of Motion to bring an application to correct an order in the Provincial Court and a Notice of Application and affidavit to correct an order in the Supreme Court. The notice <span class="noglossary">will</span> simply say that you're applying to correct the order of judge or master so-and-so, made on such-and-such a date. The affidavit <span class="noglossary">will</span> simply discuss the problem in the order and provide some proof about what the order ought to say, such as the court clerk's notes from the original hearing.
