The appellants appealed an order approving a settlement agreement between them and the respondent school under Rule 7.08 of the Rules of Civil Procedure.
The appellants argued that the dispute resolution mechanism proposed by the school did not match what was agreed upon and that the father lacked mental capacity when consenting.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal, finding no palpable and overriding error by the motion judge, as there was no evidence of incapacity and the agreement was in the minor's best interests.
