What are the terms of a sealing order?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Director of Civil Forfeiture v. Angel Acres, 2007 BCSC 1648 (CanLII):

In order to balance the necessity for the making of the restrictive publication orders with the right of the public to be advised of the court proceedings and the right of the defendants to a fair trial, the sealing order was made time-limited. A further term of the order permits the defendants to apply to set aside the order on two days’ notice. Also included are terms recommended in Celanese Canada v. Murray Demolition, [2006] 2 S.C.R. 189, 2006 SCC 36, for inclusion in an Anton Piller order. Those terms provide some protection to the defendants for court-ordered actions that are akin to a private search warrant.
