The defendant, Randy Gliddon, brought a motion to set aside an ex parte order that permitted the plaintiffs to register a Certificate of Pending Litigation (CPL) against a property.

The defendant argued that the CPL was obtained without full and fair disclosure and that there was no triable issue.

The court found no material non-disclosure, noting that the plaintiffs' reliance on an alleged oral trust agreement between the deceased and the defendant, as evidenced by a lawyer's email, was sufficient to raise a triable issue regarding the severance of joint tenancy.

The motion to set aside the CPL order was dismissed, and costs were awarded to the plaintiffs.

The defendant Mireille Jehn brought a motion seeking directions to restrain the plaintiffs from registering a caution or certificate of pending litigation (CPL) and for leave to provide 22 days' notice for refinancing instead of 30 days.

The plaintiffs cross-moved to restrain further encumbrance/refinancing and to place a CPL on the properties.

The court permitted the refinancing to proceed but restrained Mireille Jehn from drawing down funds beyond refinancing costs and $80,000 for carrying costs.

Leave was granted for the immediate 22-day notice, but future notice was extended to 60 days.

The court denied the request for a caution or CPL, finding the plaintiffs' resulting trust claim enured to the Estate, not them personally, thus they lacked a direct "interest in land."
