Visit the Civil Resolution Tribunal (CRT) website for the most up-to-date information. CRT policies are frequently updated.
The CRT is an administrative tribunal, not a court. The CRT has jurisdiction over many motor vehicle injury disputes, and can make decisions relating to your claim.

The CRT has exclusive jurisdiction to make minor injury determinations.
