The appellant appealed a summary judgment dismissing her solicitor negligence claim against her former lawyers.
The Court of Appeal upheld the motion judge's finding that there was no genuine issue for trial regarding discoverability.
The court noted that the appellant knew or ought to have known of the material facts giving rise to the claim when she signed a settlement agreement with the benefit of new counsel, yet she waited more than six years to commence the action.
The appeal was dismissed as statute-barred.
