ENDORSEMENT on THE REQUISITION TO DISMISS
Emery J.
1At the time I heard a motion by the Janza group as respondents to the counter-application commenced by Joseph Nicholson against them and RVP Roofing Systems Inc., Mr. Nicholson and the BRIM group of companies had not paid significant costs those respondents had been awarded in the course of this litigation. In the Reasons for Decision on that motion released on February 4, 2019 in BRIM IPCO INC. v. Horbatiuk et al., I made the following order:
- Since Mr. Nicholson effectively holds all shares in BRIM corporations, I order a stay of the Nicholson application until May 30, 2019. I am directing the registrar in Brampton to dismiss the Nicholson application upon the filing of an affidavit by counsel for any member of the Janza group that the costs that have been awarded to them under previous orders described in these reasons have not been paid in full by that date, including interest.
2The Janza group and RVP Roofing Systems Inc. have now filed a requisition requiring the registrar of the Superior Court of Justice at Brampton to dismiss the counter-application in Court File No. CV-15-2151-00 because Mr. Nicholson and the BRIM group of companies failed to pay any of the costs ordered by May 30, 2019. The requisitioning parties rely on the affidavit sworn by Eddy J. Battiston on June 11, 2019 in support of their requisition to prove those costs have not been paid. At paragraph 9, Mr. Battiston deposes that:
- The costs that were awarded to the Janza group under previous orders described in the reasons were not paid in full by May 30, 2019. In fact, to date hereof, no monies at all have been paid in respect to any of the costs awards described in the reasons.
3Later, in paragraph 11, Mr. Battiston states that:
- The decision of Mr. Justice Emery dated February 4, 2019, Exhibit 3 herein, is not subject to a stay.
4The proceeding commenced by Joseph Nicholson as a counter-application in Court File No. CV-15-2151-00, is therefore dismissed. An order in the form and content attached as Schedule A to this endorsement shall issue.
