The plaintiff sued a fraternal organization and several of its members.
The parties negotiated a settlement, but the plaintiff unilaterally settled with the US defendants and purported to withdraw from the settlement with the Ontario defendants just before a convention, citing delays in receiving signed documents and funds.
The Ontario defendants brought a motion to enforce the settlement under Rule 49.09.
The court granted the motion, finding that the plaintiff had not made a deadline an essential term of the agreement and suffered no prejudice, as he had already achieved his primary goal of reinstatement through the US settlement.
