Family orders picklists

Family orders picklists

Picklists are lists of standard terms for court orders that can be used in all BC Provincial Court locations. The family picklist is available on courtroom computers. A court clerk can use them to quickly and accurately capture the order a judge makes.  

When a judge decides to change the standard wording, a court clerk can edit the term as needed. Picklists include letter and number codes for each of the standard terms. This helps the court clerk find a term quickly. When a judge says a number before making an order, they are referring to a standard term in the picklist.  

For example you might hear a judge say "B15". This lets the court clerk know that the judge is referring to a term that says "(Name) and (name) shall share parenting time equally as agreed between them."
