The defendant brought two motions: one to compel the plaintiff to re-attend for oral discovery and another for security for costs.
The plaintiff opposed both.
The court ordered the plaintiff to complete her discovery via video conference due to medical reasons, with shared costs.
The court also granted the security for costs motion, finding the plaintiff ordinarily resident outside Ontario, and ordered $15,000 in security for future costs, payable in tranches.
No costs were awarded for the motions.
