The moving party, a co-owner of the matrimonial home, sought to transfer a mortgage enforcement action commenced by the bank in Milton to Brampton, and to have it tried together with an ongoing family law application involving her son and daughter-in-law.
The court granted the transfer, finding that Brampton was a significantly better venue given the location of the property and the parties.
The court declined to order the matters be tried together at this early stage, but ordered that evidence obtained in each proceeding apply equally to the other to avoid duplication.
