NOTICE OF REQUIREMENT AND EXEMPTION FORM

For Applicants. If you are:

the court requires you to attend a Parenting after Separation (PAS) session before you appear in court.

For Respondents. If you are named as the other party (respondent):

the court requires you to attend a Parenting after Separation (PAS) session before you appear in court.

Also, check the information in the package of court documents you receive to see what other steps you have to take if you wish to respond to an application.

Attending a PAS Session:

Register for a PAS session. The PAS brochure in this package tells you who to contact for PAS sessions in your area. Attend the session and receive a Certificate of Attendance. File the Certificate of Attendance at the court registry.

When this requirement may not apply:

In some situations you may not be required to attend a PAS session (be exempt). Look at the Exemption Form now to see if you are exempt. Sometimes one or both parties are automatically exempt. These situations are listed on the front page of the form. The reasons listed on the back page of the form apply only if you receive permission from the PAS Program Administrator to be exempt from attending.

If your situation is urgent, for example: you are concerned about your safety or the safety of your children, be sure to tell staff at the Provincial Court Registry or the Family Justice Centre or your lawyer. Other exemptions might apply to you.

IMPORTANT NOTE

A first court appearance cannot be set until one of the parties (applicant or respondent) files a Certificate of Attendance or shows that he or she did not have to attend. Both parties must file a certificate before they appear in court or show that they are exempt.
