Biographical history
In 1937 the British Columbia government established a Supreme Court registry at Duncan, effective February 15, 1937. It was approved and ordered by Order-in-Council 0099-1937 dated January 26, 1937. (Source: Orders-in-Council and British Columbia Gazette 1937, p. 319).
Currently (to March 31, 2016) the Duncan Registry of the Supreme Court continues as an active registry.
Note that the Order-in-Council states the registry is in the "Victoria Judicial District." The text of the British Columbia Gazette 1937, p. 319 states the registry is in the “Nanaimo Judicial District.”
