The plaintiffs, Maria Stiles, Jack Stiles, and The Estate of Peter Elie, brought a motion under rule 30.10 of the Rules of Civil Procedure for production of Toronto Police Service investigative records regarding the death of Peter Elie.
The court found the requested documents relevant and that it would be unfair to require the plaintiffs to proceed to trial without them.
The court ordered production of the records, subject to screening by the Attorney General for privilege or confidentiality, and awarded costs to the plaintiffs.
