Contract 2025 NSSC 240

N.W. Fulcher Limited v. Chad Munro Family Trust (2010)

Defendants failed to meet the evidentiary and persuasive burden to obtain a stay because they did not apply for a stay before taking steps in the proceedings, they did not establish readiness and willingness to arbitrate as required by s.7 of the Arbitration Act, and they attorned to the court by filing a defence on the merits; therefore the motion to stay and compel arbitration was dismissed and the action may proceed in court.

Civil 2014 ONCA 378

Fuda v. Jim McIntosh Petroleum Engineering Ltd.

The misrepresentation claims were statute‑barred because the appellant was aware of all material facts more than two years before bringing the claims; post‑expiry amendments alleged new causes of action unconnected to the original pleading and therefore could not revive barred claims; the motion judge’s dismissal on limitation grounds was correct and the appeal is dismissed.

Corporate/commercial 2014 ONCA 376

D'Addario v. EnGlobe Corp.

The trial judge correctly found on the facts that respondents' conduct did not meet the statutory test for oppression, any disclosure under s.21 CBCA was innocent and not causative of loss because the appellants consented to the injunction freezing their shares, the conspiracy claim failed for lack of intent to injure, and therefore the appeal is dismissed and costs are properly awarded to the successful respondent (EnGlobe).

  • Canada business corporations act s.21

Civil 2012 ONCA 594

Hawley v. Pennington

The appeal was dismissed because the undisputed evidence showed 5400 Inc. was placed in consent liquidation and was replaced as general partner by court order, which caused the cessation of its business and income; those events, not the respondent's conduct, produced the appellant's alleged loss, so summary judgment in favour of the respondents was correct.
