The plaintiffs in three proposed class proceedings concerning the unlawful interception of communications by the Correctional Service of Canada brought unopposed motions in writing.
They sought orders designating Acheson Sweeney Foley Sahota LLP as class counsel and prohibiting the commencement of any other proposed class proceeding regarding the same allegations without leave.
The Court granted the requested "Heyder Order," concluding it would protect ongoing settlement discussions, promote judicial economy, and prevent inconsistent decisions.
