June 5 – Application vs Case

“Under the Family Law Rules, “‘application’ means, as the context requires, the document that starts a case or the procedure by which new cases are brought to the court for a final order or provisional order.” The term ‘case’ means “an application or any other method allowed in law for bringing a matter to the court for a final order or provisional order, and includes all motions, enforcements and appeals.”
