You will have to communicate with SACAT and the other people involved in your matter to provide documents and evidence.
Any communication you send to SACAT should include:
- Enough information to identify your matter (including your SACAT reference number)
- Why you are sending the information
- What you want to happen with that information.
It is important that everyone involved in your case receives the information necessary for them to participate in the hearing and for the Tribunal Member to make a decision about your case.
You must be respectful when you communicate with SACAT and the other people involved in your matter.
Confidential information
There are some circumstances where documents and information are not provided to everyone.
If there have been domestic violence issues between yourself and the other party in your matter, you have an Intervention Order in place, or you have safety concerns, please make sure you advise SACAT.
We may redact certain personal information from any documents you provide us before providing it to the other party.
SACAT may also make confidentiality orders about your matter on application - please see here for more information.
Applications and responses
If you are making an application, you must provide your contact details and the contact details of the other people involved in the matter.
This is so SACAT can provide everyone involved with a copy of the application and any response.
SACAT's Registry
When you contact us before your hearing, you are talking to SACAT’s Registry. The Registry can give you general information about SACAT's processes. The Registry cannot make decisions about your case or give you legal advice.
