The plaintiff, Wawanesa Mutual Insurance, brought a motion to compel several defendants (corporate entities, Vishnu Lootawon, Jonathan Lootawon, Tina Lootawon, and Wayne Russell) to disclose particulars of their insurance policy and to compel attendance at examinations for discovery.
The motion arose from a subrogated action following an alleged motor vehicle accident.
The court found that Vishnu Lootawon's conduct during his examination for discovery was improper, with evasive answers and refusal to produce relevant documents.
Jonathan and Tina Lootawon failed to attend their scheduled examinations.
The court granted the plaintiff's requests, ordering the defending defendants to provide sworn affidavits of documents, produce relevant documents, disclose insurance policies, and comply with discovery obligations.
Vishnu Lootawon was ordered to re-attend discovery at his own expense, and Jonathan and Tina Lootawon were ordered to attend discovery.
Costs were awarded to the plaintiff against Vishnu, Tina, and Jonathan Lootawon.
