The Supreme Court has a special stamp called a seal. You know the Registrar of the Supreme Court is in charge of this seal. The seal is used to officially mark important documents like judgments and orders from the Supreme Court. The Registrar uses the seal on documents that need to be sealed. This includes certificates and other important papers from the court. You can find more information about this by looking at the Senior Courts Act and similar laws, such as the one from 2003.
