The respondent insurer brought a motion for security for costs of the appellant's appeal.
The underlying action involved a motor vehicle accident claim that was dismissed after the insurer successfully moved to enforce a settlement agreement.
The Court of Appeal granted the motion for security for costs, finding good reason to believe the appeal was frivolous and vexatious, and that the appellant had insufficient assets in Ontario to pay the costs of the appeal.
The appellant was ordered to post $5,000 in security.
