    Administrative history

    In 1919, the Legislature passed the Judicature Act (S.A. 1919, c.3), officially dividing the Supreme Court of Alberta into a Trial Division, in which judges heard cases in each judicial district in the province, and an Appellate Division, in which judges heard only appeals while in sittings held at Calgary or Edmonton. Section 2(1) of the Court of Queen's Bench Act (SA 1978, c. 51) changed the name of the Trial Division to the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta. The legislation and name change took effect on June 30, 1979.
