The plaintiff, Thanh Nguyen, brought an action against multiple defendants, including Toronto Dominion Bank (TDB), Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG), and Thien P. Dam (a lawyer), alleging negligence related to the cashing of a Canada Savings Bond, payment of a lottery prize, and transfer of property, respectively.
TDB, OLG, and Ms. Dam brought a motion for partial summary judgment to dismiss the claims against them.
The court granted the motion, finding that the claims were statute-barred by the limitation period and that no duty of care was owed by these defendants to the plaintiff.
The court also rejected the defendants' abuse of process argument but found no genuine issue requiring a trial for the negligence claims.
