A Statement of Claim is an originating process in the Court of Queen's Bench
that is used when one party is suing another party.
A common misunderstanding about the role of the Court is that the Court is
responsible for enforcing or ensuring that its orders or judgments are followed.
This is not the case. If a person is successful in obtaining a judgment
or an order in his or her favour from the Court, it is up to
that person to take whatever steps he or she considers necessary,
in keeping with the law, to enforce the order.
