- High Court
Summary judgment was refused because the defendants raised credible, arguable factual matters (notably documentary evidence supporting payment in the defamation proceeding) such that the plaintiff did not discharge the onus of showing there was no real question to be tried; interlocutory procedures including discovery and non-party discovery were necessary and the matter must proceed to trial.
