P.Y. v. Catholic Children's Aid Society of Toronto, 2021 ONCA 164

The appellants, parents whose children were made Crown wards, appealed the dismissal of their action against multiple defendants involved in the child protection proceedings.

The action was dismissed under Rule 2.1.01 of the Rules of Civil Procedure as frivolous and vexatious, being an impermissible attempt to relitigate issues already decided.

The Court of Appeal upheld the dismissal, finding no error in the lower court's decision that the action constituted an abuse of process.

Healthcare Insurance Reciprocal of Canada v. Royal and Sun Alliance Insurance Company of Canada, 2017 ONSC 6653

Following a four-day reference in an insurance application, the successful respondent sought costs on a full or partial indemnity basis.

The applicants argued costs should be reserved to the judge hearing the confirmation of the report.

The Master held that having presided over the reference, they were in the best position to fix costs.

The Master rejected the request for full indemnity costs, finding no conduct warranting such an award, and fixed partial indemnity costs at $28,000 payable to the respondent, subject to confirmation of the report.

Flom v. Brown Window Corporation et al., 2015 ONSC 5162

Following a settlement between defendants and several third parties in a defective window litigation, the plaintiff sought disclosure of the settlement terms and scheduled a motion for that relief.

Before the motion proceeded, the plaintiff received sufficient information about the settlement through exchanged emails and draft releases and abandoned the motion but sought costs for bringing it.

The responding parties also sought their costs.

The court declined to determine the abstract merits of the abandoned motion solely for costs purposes and held that continuing the motion solely to support a costs claim was a waste of court and counsel resources.

No costs were awarded to any party.
