The solicitors for the applicant brought a motion to be removed from the record.
The applicant requested a last-minute adjournment by email, citing the need to retain new counsel and obtain its file from the moving solicitors.
The court denied the adjournment, noting the applicant had sufficient time to address these issues since being served with the motion materials.
Finding that the solicitor-client relationship had broken down and there was no prejudice to the respondent or imminent hearing date, the court granted the motion to remove the solicitors from the record.
No costs were awarded.
