Jurisdiction and structure

The Saskatchewan Court of Appeal is the highest court in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada. There are 8 official judicial positions, including the Chief Justice, who make up the Court of Appeal.[1] At any given time there may be one or more additional justice siting as supernumerary justices.[1] The Court is governed by The Court of Appeal Act, 2000,[2] which sets out the composition and jurisdiction of the Court. It hears appeals from the Court of King's Bench for Saskatchewan, the Provincial Court of Saskatchewan and a number of administrative tribunals.

The Court is based in Regina, Saskatchewan and consists of the Chief Justice - styled the "Chief Justice of Saskatchewan". Justices of the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal are appointed and paid by the federal government.[3]

Most cases are heard by a panel of three justices, however, the Court sits with panels of five or seven from time to time, depending on the appeal.[4] A single justice will preside over matters heard in "chambers", usually interlocutory matters or applications for leave to appeal.

Original jurisdiction

The Court has a limited original jurisdiction, giving it the discretion to grant relief by way of a prerogative writ.[5] The Court has held that since it is primarily a court of appeal, it will only entertain original applications for prerogative relief in extraordinary circumstances.[6] It also has any original jurisdiction that is necessary or incidental to the hearing and determination of an appeal.[7]

Reference jurisdiction

Under The Constitutional Questions Act,[8] the Government of Saskatchewan has the authority to refer questions of law to the Court of Appeal for the Court's advisory opinion.

History of the Court

The Court of Appeal was created on March 1, 1918, upon the coming into force of The Court of Appeal Act of 1915.[9] Prior to that date, there was a single superior court for Saskatchewan, known as the Supreme Court of Saskatchewan, which had both appellate and trial jurisdiction. Individual members of the Supreme Court sat as trial judges, while the full Supreme Court Court (also known at the Supreme Court en banc) heard appeals. The 1915 legislation split the appellate functions and the trial functions. The new Court of Appeal was established to take over the appellate function of the Supreme Court of Saskatchewan, and the new Court of King's Bench was created to take over the trial functions of the Supreme Court of Saskatchewan.[10] The Supreme Court of Saskatchewan was abolished effective March 1, 1918.[11]

Appeals to the Supreme Court

Appeals may be taken from the Court of Appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada either by right, by leave of the Supreme Court of Canada, or by leave of the Court of Appeal itself, depending on the nature of the case. Until 1949 appeals could further be taken from the Supreme Court of Canada to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the United Kingdom. Appeals could also be taken directly from the Court of Appeal to the Privy Council.[12]
