The plaintiffs, judgment creditors of the defendant Sandy DiFlorio, brought a motion for leave to issue a certificate of pending litigation against a property owned by Sandy's son.
The plaintiffs alleged that a $300,000 mortgage advance from Sandy to his son was a fraudulent conveyance designed to defeat creditors.
The court applied the criteria under section 103(6) of the Courts of Justice Act and found the plaintiffs had a reasonable claim to an interest in the land.
The motion for a certificate of pending litigation was granted.
A secondary motion to strike a statement of defence for unpaid costs was dismissed with leave to renew if costs remained unpaid.
