The plaintiff brought a motion to have two related commercial lease actions heard together and to validate service of the statements of claim on one of the defendants via WeChat.
The court found that the actions involved common questions of law and fact and ordered them to be heard together.
The court also validated service via WeChat, noting that the defendant had communicated with the plaintiff's property manager on the app shortly before the claims were sent, establishing a reasonable likelihood that the claims came to his attention.
