The moving parties sought directions regarding compliance with a prior court order addressing undertakings, advisements, and objections arising from examinations for discovery.
The dispute concerned whether the defendants had adequately addressed issues relating to corporate ownership and control, particularly whether a named entity was a subsidiary of other defendants.
The court accepted admissions provided by defence counsel confirming the relevant corporate relationships and held that these admissions satisfied the earlier order’s requirements.
The admissions were permitted to be entered into evidence to prove the truth of their contents.
The moving parties were awarded modest costs payable by certain defendants.
