Clancy v. Farid

Registrar correctly dismissed the appeal because the judicially imposed 30‑day perfection deadline (30 days from receipt of Ramsay J.'s June 27, 2023 reasons) was clear and binding and the Registrar had no power to vary it; the motion judge refused to set aside the dismissal and to extend time because the appellant offered no satisfactory evidentiary explanation for the delay, the delay prejudiced respondents seeking finality, and the appeal lacked sufficient arguable merit such that justice did not require an extension.
