The appellant appealed an order striking his pleadings and permitting an uncontested trial.
The appellant had repeatedly failed to comply with multiple court orders requiring financial disclosure, payment of support arrears, and payment of costs over an extended period.
Despite numerous opportunities and extensions granted by various judges, the appellant continued to be non-compliant.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding no error in the lower court's decision to strike the pleadings given the appellant's persistent and egregious pattern of non-compliance with court orders.
