The defendants moved for summary judgment, arguing the plaintiff's professional negligence action was statute-barred by the two-year limitation period under the Limitations Act, 2002.
The plaintiff alleged negligence regarding legal advice on an arbitration clause.
The court found the plaintiff discovered the claim by November 23, 2009, based on a letter threatening legal malpractice action and attempts to amend pleadings.
The action, commenced October 4, 2013, was therefore dismissed as statute-barred.
