This Act was originally a Commonwealth Act—the Seat of Government Supreme Court Act 1933 No 34 (Cwlth).
It was renamed the Australian Capital Territory Supreme Court Act 1933 by the Statute Revision Act 1950 (Cwlth).
It was later renamed the Supreme Court Act 1933 by the A.C.T. Supreme Court (Transfer) Act 1992 (Cwlth).
The Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988 (Cwlth), s 34 (2) converted some Commonwealth Acts in force in the ACT into ACT enactments. This allowed the ACT Legislative Assembly to amend and repeal the laws. This Act was converted into an ACT enactment on 1 July 1992 under the Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988 (Cwlth), s 34 (3).
