The Attorney General of Canada brought a motion for security for costs against Telecore, a corporate plaintiff, in a procurement action.
The court considered whether the AGC required leave to bring the motion, the sufficiency of Telecore’s assets, and whether Telecore was impecunious.
The court found Telecore to be impecunious but determined that the AGC’s delay in bringing the motion was not justified.
The motion for security for costs was dismissed, and no costs were awarded on the motion.
