The plaintiff brought a motion for leave to amend his Statement of Claim to pierce the corporate veil and hold the individual defendant personally liable for the corporate defendant's failure to pay commissions and other compensation.
The corporate defendant was in receivership.
The individual defendant opposed the amendments, arguing they were statute-barred and disclosed no reasonable cause of action.
The court granted the motion, finding that the amendments disclosed a reasonable cause of action by sufficiently linking the individual defendant's alleged value-stripping to the unpaid commissions.
The court also held that the discoverability of the claim raised issues of fact and credibility that must be determined at trial or on summary judgment.
