The plaintiff, MDG Newmarket Inc., brought a motion for summary judgment to enforce minutes of settlement against the defendant, Pierre Pascal, related to a rental contract for HVAC equipment.
Mr. Pascal counterclaimed, alleging misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and statutory breaches, including under the Consumer Protection Act, 2002.
The court noted an ongoing class action against MDG involving similar contracts.
The court temporarily stayed MDG's action and referred the matter to the Regional Senior Judge in the Southwest Region to determine if it should be transferred or considered part of the class action, citing concerns about inconsistent findings and judicial efficiency.
