Key facts

  • Address filings to the registry — "Edmonton Law Courts" — not to a judge or a specific person.
  • Put your court file (case) number on every page and on the outside of the envelope. Without it, the registry cannot match your documents to your file.
  • Send copies, not your only originals. Mail can be delayed or lost, and most filings are made with copies — keep the signed original unless the court specifically requires it.
  • Mailing documents to the court is filing, not serving. You still have to serve the other party separately, by the method the rules require.
  • Watch your deadline. A document is generally filed when the registry receives and date-stamps it, not when you mail it — post well ahead of any limitation or hearing date.
  • Include a short cover letter listing what you are filing and your file number, plus a self-addressed stamped envelope if you want a date-stamped copy returned.
  • PostPal prints your documents and deposits them with Canada Post the next business day for $6 — no printer, envelope, or trip to the post office, with your return address printed for the reply.

How to send your letter

  1. 1

    Confirm this is the right court and registry

    Filings go to the specific court and location that has your matter — the wrong registry will return or reject them. Confirm Edmonton Law Courts is correct for your court level and division against the official Alberta court-locator (linked in the sources below), and check that it still accepts filings by mail.

  2. 2

    Assemble the documents

    Include every required form and the correct number of copies, each showing your court file number. Add a one-line cover letter saying what you are filing. Send copies and keep your signed originals unless the rules require the original.

  3. 3

    Address it to the registry

    First line: Edmonton Law Courts. Then the mailing address: 1A Sir Winston Churchill Square, Edmonton AB T5J 0R2. Write your court file number on the envelope so the registry can route it.

  4. 4

    Mail it in time — and serve separately

    Post well before your deadline; filing takes effect when the registry receives it, not when you send it. Remember mailing the court is not serving the other side. No printer or envelopes? Write or upload your documents to PostPal and we print and deposit them with Canada Post the next business day for $6.

Common questions

What is the mailing address for Edmonton Law Courts?

Address filings to Edmonton Law Courts, 1A Sir Winston Churchill Square, Edmonton AB T5J 0R2. Put your court file number on every page and on the envelope, and confirm the registry accepts filings by mail before sending anything with a deadline.

Is mailing documents to the court the same as serving the other party?

No. Mailing documents to the registry files them with the court. Serving the other party is a separate step with its own rules about who can serve, how, and by when. Filing without serving (or the reverse) can get your material rejected or your matter delayed.

When is a document considered filed — when I mail it or when it arrives?

Generally when the registry physically receives and date-stamps it, not the day you put it in the mail. Build in mailing time and post well ahead of any limitation period or hearing date, and include a self-addressed stamped envelope if you want a stamped copy back as proof.

Should I mail originals or copies?

Copies, in almost all cases. Mail can be delayed or lost, and most filings are made with copies while you keep the signed original. Only send an original when a rule or the registry specifically requires it — and if you must, use trackable mail.
