Cancellation of registration. 14.(1) If a person entitled to receive payments under a registered order desires the registration to be cancelled, he may give notice under this section. (2) Where the original court varies or discharges an order registered in a court of summary jurisdiction, the original court may, if it thinks fit, give notice under this section. (3) Where a court of summary jurisdiction discharges an order registered in the High Court and it appears to the court of summary jurisdiction, whether by reason of the remission of arrears by that court or otherwise, that no arrears under the order remain to be recovered, the court of summary jurisdiction shall give notice under this section. (4) Notice under this section shall be given to the court of registration; and where such notice is given (a)no proceedings for the enforcement of the registered order shall be begun before the cancellation of the registration and no writ, warrant or other process for the enforcement thereof shall be issued in consequence of any such proceedings begun before the giving of the notice; (b)where the order is registered in a court of summary jurisdiction, any warrant of commitment issued for the enforcement of the order shall cease to have effect when the person in possession of the warrant is informed of the giving of the notice, unless the defendant has then already been detained in pursuance of the warrant; and (c)the court of registration shall cancel the registration on being satisfied in the prescribed manner (i)that no process for the enforcement of the registered order issued before the giving of the notice remains in force; and (ii)in the case of an order registered in a court of summary jurisdiction, that no proceedings for the variation of the order are pending in a court of summary jurisdiction.
