+You must file your Notice of Motion in the court registry where the Application to Obtain an Order was filed. The staff may book a date for the hearing of your application right there. If the court registry for your matter is a ''family justice registry'' (currently Kelowna, Nanaimo, Surrey or Vancouver (Robson Square) registry), staff may need you to go to a first meeting with a family justice counsellor and the other side before booking the date.
