In a motor vehicle accident tort action, the defendants brought a motion to amend their statement of defence, remove the plaintiff's counsel from the record, compel the plaintiff to attend independent medical examinations (IMEs), and stop the plaintiff's counsel from communicating with the IME evaluators.
The court allowed the factual amendments to the statement of defence but struck proposed paragraphs alleging the plaintiff was using her legal training to exaggerate her claims, finding them scandalous.
The court refused to remove the plaintiff's counsel, noting his potential evidence as her former law professor was tangential.
Finally, the court ordered the plaintiff to attend the IMEs without conditions and directed her counsel to cease imposing terms on the defendants' medical experts.
