The Tribunal ordered that if the parties cannot resolve disputes over the claimants' proposed amended pleadings, the respondent must file a motion by May 4, 2026.
The parties were also directed to submit a draft procedural order with a proposed 2027 hearing date by May 29, 2026, and a written case management conference was scheduled for June 5, 2026, if requested.
Expropriation hearing adjourned due to incomplete discoveries and proposed pleading amendments; interim costs denied.
At a Case Management Conference for an expropriation compensation claim, the Tribunal determined that the scheduled 10-day hearing could not proceed due to incomplete discoveries, outstanding undertakings, and the claimants' intention to amend their pleadings.
The Tribunal adjourned the hearing, scheduled a further Case Management Conference to set new dates, and ordered the claimants to identify any additional expert witnesses.
The respondent's request for interim costs thrown away was dismissed, with costs reserved to the final hearing.
