The appellant appealed an order of the Superior Court of Justice granting possession of Lot 15 on the Whitefish River First Nation reserve to the respondent and ordering the appellant's eviction.
The appellant claimed she was denied a fair hearing because the application judge unreasonably refused an adjournment and his conduct gave rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias.
The appellant also sought leave to appeal the substantial indemnity costs award of approximately $24,000.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the main appeal regarding fair hearing but granted leave to appeal costs and reduced the award to $15,000 partial indemnity costs.
