Removal orders: Application of rules of court
213Application of District Court Rules to removal orders
Despite section 247, an application made under section 215 must be made in accordance with Subpart 4 of Part 20 of the District Court Rules 2014 and any rules made under subsection (2) or section 214.
In addition to all the powers conferred by the District Court Act 2016, the Governor-General may, from time to time, by Order in Council, make rules under that Act—
- regulating the practice and procedure of the District Court in proceedings relating to an application for a removal order; and
- providing for the matters contemplated by, or necessary for giving full effect to, sections 215 to 221 and Schedule 14.
Rules made under the District Court Act 2016 in accordance with this section are part of the District Court Rules 2014.
In the absence of rules made under the District Court Act 2016 in accordance with this section, or in a situation not covered by such rules, the District Court Rules 2014 apply, with all necessary modifications, to proceedings relating to sections 215 to 221.
