The moving parties, who were inmates placed in administrative segregation after the opt-out deadline in a class action against Canada, brought a motion to opt out of the class action.
The motion became moot when the parties agreed to amend the class definition and provide a new opt-out period.
The moving parties sought costs for the unargued motion.
The court found that the motion was unnecessary because the moving parties were not class members to begin with, and ordered the costs of the motion to be in the cause of their external individual actions against Canada.
