Trusts and estates 2022 ONCA 671

Di Santo v. Di Santo Estate

The Court granted the stay because the appeal raised a serious issue (the propriety of removing and replacing trustees appointed by a deceased over entities with significant interrelated assets), the Entities would suffer irreparable, non‑quantifiable harm absent a stay, and the balance of convenience favoured maintaining the status quo pending appeal; the automatic stay of the earlier costs order remains in place and the Court has jurisdiction to hear the appeal on the final trustee removal/replacement orders, so the motion to quash or stay the appeal was dismissed.

  • Removal of trustees
  • Stay of orders
  • Interim funding
  • Jurisdiction to appeal
  • Entitlement to appeal after alleged breach

Samson Cree Nation v. Canada (Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development)

The application to consolidate was granted, but the application for a stay was dismissed because the Court lacked jurisdiction to stay the October 24, 2003 order in the absence of an appeal and because the appellants failed to prove irreparable harm with adequate evidence in respect of the October 9, 2003 order; accordingly costs were awarded to the respondents.

  • Jurisdiction under federal court rules
  • Irreparable harm
