The plaintiff, Falcon Lumber Limited, brought a motion seeking an order for full disclosure of business, corporate, and financial records from defendants GN Trim and Doors Ltd. and Surinder P. Lotey.
The plaintiff alleged unjust enrichment and sought to pierce the corporate veil, arguing the documents were relevant to determine why payment for goods was withheld and the financial relationships between the defendants.
The defendants argued the documents were irrelevant to a simple collection case.
The court found the documents relevant to the issues of unjust enrichment and piercing the corporate veil, given the allegations of collusion and the circumstances surrounding the cessation of GN Trim's operations and a cancelled asset sale.
The motion for disclosure was granted.
