The Masters advise that, from Monday 1 June 2020, all listing practices, including settlement conferences, will return to normal. All matters will be heard in court, unless other arrangements are made with chambers prior to the hearing.
Parties and practitioners are expected to observe social distancing requirements.
Parties are not to physically approach court staff in the court.
Requests for administrative adjournments must be received at least 2 business days prior to the directions hearing.
For matters up to and including 29 May 2020, the current protocols will continue to apply, except where they have been modified in consultation with chambers.
Practitioners are reminded that if they are in self-isolation, quarantine, are in any way unwell, or have been in contact with someone who has returned from overseas or interstate within the last 14 days, they are NOT to enter the Sir Samuel Way Building.
If a practitioner has a condition that makes them vulnerable to infection or they are generally concerned and do not wish to come into Court they should advise Chambers at least 24 hours prior to the hearing and make alternative satisfactory arrangements.
All inquiries should be directed to dcmastersjso@courts.sa.gov.au
