Coalspur Mines (Operations) Ltd. - Caseline Software Instructions
IN ORDER TO AVOID ANY ISSUES WITH THE CASELINE WEBSITE DURING COURT APPLICATIONS ALL PARTICIPANTS SHOULD BE USING GOOGLE CHROME AS THEIR INTERNET BROWSER.
The Monitor, following consultation with the Debtor, is proposing that CaseLines be used to serve and manage all documents in CCAA Queen's Bench Action No. 2101-05019 (the "Action") going forward. CaseLines is a functional case management software that acts as a repository for Court documents in the Action and allows for read time viewing of documents online.
This would require that all parties upload their documents directly to CaseLines (instructions are included below). We will be requesting an order from Madame Justice Romaine on June 16 at 2:00 pm, which will deem all documents uploaded to CaseLines as served on all parties on the Service List. Please note that the Monitor will also be maintaining its website over the course of the Action to allow for public access to filed documents.
The following is intended to provide an overview of signing up for Caselines and utilizing the software to upload/download and view documents in the Action. More information is available through the help functions in Caselines, including:
- FAQ's
- Contacting tech support with Caselines at support@caselines.com
Additionally, two "cheat sheets" regarding registering/finding a case and downloading/uploading documents have been provided below to assist with Caselines related items.

This summary will outline the following:
1. Signing up for CaseLines Account;
2. Accessing the Action case file;
3. Viewing and Downloading Documents;
4. Uploading Documents; and
5. Notification of New Documents.
Please note that the cost to the Monitor for uploading documents is approximately $0.50 per page and therefore please only upload documents that would otherwise be served on the service list and please only upload one version of each document. For clarity, parties uploading documents will not be charged the fee, but the Monitor will be responsible for payment of all uploading costs. All internal formatting and organization of documents will be handled exclusively by the Monitor, FTI Consulting Canada Inc., and its counsel Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP to ensure consistency. Should you encounter any issues that cannot be resolved with Caselines technical support, or through a further review of this summary and the cheat sheets, please contact Brandi Swift of FTI Consulting Canada Inc. (brandi.swift@fticonsulting.com) and Marica Ceko of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP (marica.ceko@blakes.com)
