C-25.01 - Code of Civil Procedure

Full text
596. A judgment that orders collective recovery makes provision for individual liquidation of the class members’ claims or for distribution of an amount to each class member.
The court designates a person to carry out the operation, gives them the necessary instructions, including instructions as to proof and procedure, and determines their remuneration.
The court disposes of any remaining balance in the same manner as when remitting an amount to a third person, having regard, among other things, to the members’ interests. If the judgment is against the State, the remaining balance is paid into the Access to Justice Fund.
