A case supervision conference was convened in several related proceedings involving estate administration and associated civil claims.
The court discovered that a corporate party, The Canada Trust Company, was not represented by counsel despite earlier assumptions by other parties.
In addition, a new action had recently been commenced, complicating coordination of the proceedings.
As a result, the court adjourned the scheduled long motion and directed that service be effected on the unrepresented party.
The court scheduled a further case supervision conference and directed counsel to prepare a coordinated litigation timetable.
