The plaintiff dentist brought an action against his former employee for misappropriation of funds.
The defendant employee brought a motion to strike the statement of claim or for summary judgment dismissing the action, arguing it was statute-barred and lacked sufficient particulars.
The plaintiff brought a cross-motion to consolidate the action with the defendant's separate constructive dismissal action.
The court dismissed the defendant's motion, finding the pleadings sufficient and that genuine issues of material fact required a trial.
The court granted the plaintiff's motion in part, ordering the two actions to be tried together or consecutively to avoid multiplicity of proceedings.
