C-61.1 - Act respecting the conservation and development of wildlife

Section 164.5 Disposition versions

2021-06-11

164.5. An application to a judge under section 164.4 shall be made according to the rules applicable to contentious proceedings under the Code of Civil Procedure (chapter C-25.01).

Applications made by the Minister must be notified to the person or persons they concern, but the judge may waive that requirement if he considers that the delay resulting therefrom could unnecessarily imperil wildlife or its habitat or human health or safety.

All orders issued must be notified to the person concerned and may be executed by a peace officer.

Applications are decided by preference and orders issued are enforceable despite an appeal.

A judge of the Court of Appeal may, however, suspend the execution of an order if the judge considers it necessary in the interests of justice.
