C-68 - Coroners Act

Full text
36. The coroner may order the disinterment of any body when he has reason to believe that a crime has been committed and that an examination of the body is likely to furnish information to him but he must first obtain the authorization of the Attorney General and shall prepare a written declaration, under his oath of office, setting forth the reasons which justify him; such declaration must be included in his report to the clerk of the peace.
The expenses incurred for such disinterment and reinterment shall be borne by Québec.
