Crazy Greek Chick Foods Limited v. Chakroborty

mCloud Technologies Corp. v. Wynward Insurance Group

The Court has jurisdiction to consider applications to amend leave applications after the s.60 30-day period, but must refuse amendments that are so significant they effectively constitute an application for extension of time; the proposed amendments here fundamentally reframed the appeal and therefore were dismissed as an impermissible extension of time.

Family law 2026 BCCA 200

Bhatti v. Parmar

The appeals were dismissed because the appellant failed to comply with the court-ordered extension to file the appeal record and transcripts, did not demonstrate a continuing bona fide intention to prosecute the appeals, caused ongoing prejudice to the respondent (including the stay of the divorce and restrictions on property), and identified no arguable errors justifying continued delay; dismissal under s.36(c) of the Court of Appeal Act was in the interests of justice.

  • Dismissal for abandonment
  • Extension of time
  • Prejudice by delay
  • Davies criteria
  • Stay of divorce pending appeal
  • Certificate of pending litigation

Property law 2026 BCCA 181

Moghari v. Dolatshah

The appeal was dismissed as abandoned because the appellants did not demonstrate a bona fide intention to prosecute the appeal (they failed to take necessary steps or promptly inform the respondent), the respondent would be prejudiced by delay (loss of possession, rental income and risk of tax sale), the appeal had little prospect of success given factual and credibility-based findings at trial and underdeveloped legal argument, and the interests of justice favored dismissal rather than granting an extension or stay.

  • Constructive trust
  • Abandonment of appeal
  • Extension of time
  • Stay applications
  • Prejudice from delay
  • Credibility and deference to trial findings

Civil procedure 2026 FCA 75

Solakian v. Canada Post Corporation

The Court dismissed the appeal, holding there was no reviewable error in the Federal Court's conclusion that it was not in the interests of justice to grant a 234-day extension to file a notice of appeal; the appellants failed to provide a reasonable explanation for the delay, concerns about finality and potential prejudice weighed against relief, and deference to the Associate Judge's discretionary assessment was warranted.

  • Extension of time
  • Finality and deadlines
  • Prejudice from delay
  • Standard of review
