Illustration for Crown Minerals Act 1991

When you are in court or other legal proceedings, there are special rules for giving people documents. These rules are set out in other laws, not in the Crown Minerals Act 1991. This means that sections 96 and 96A of the Crown Minerals Act 1991 do not apply to serving documents in these situations.
