The Plaintiff, a commercial lender, sought summary judgment against John McCrindle, the personal guarantor of a defaulted business loan.
The co-defendant, 1521105 Ontario Inc. o/a System Fitness, was already subject to a default judgment.
Despite the respondent's counsel having no instructions, the court found no genuine issue requiring a trial, noting admissions in the respondent's Statement of Defence and the plaintiff's supporting evidence.
Summary judgment was granted for the outstanding loan balance plus contractual interest and costs, affirming that partial summary judgment is appropriate when there is no risk of conflicting findings.
