Hearing of application
7.6.—(1) Unless allowed or authorised to be made otherwise, every application before the registrar shall, and every application before the judge may, be heard in chambers.
(2) Unless either—
(a)the judge has given a general or special direction to the contrary, or
(b)it is not within the registrar's power to make the order required,
the jurisdiction of the court to hear and determine the application may be exercised by the registrar, and the application shall be made to the registrar in the first instance.
(3) Where the application is made to the registrar he may refer to the judge any matter which he thinks should properly be decided by the judge, and the judge may either dispose of the matter or refer it back to the registrar with such directions as he thinks fit.
(4) Nothing in this Rule precludes an application being made directly to the judge in a proper case.
