The applicant brought a motion to strike the respondent's pleadings for non-compliance with disclosure orders, or alternatively, sought specific disclosure.
The respondent failed to file responding materials and did not attend the motion.
The court declined to strike the pleadings, citing the drastic nature of the remedy, the unresolved parenting component, and the need for the respondent's participation to ensure a just result.
Instead, the court ordered the respondent to provide extensive financial and medical disclosure within 60 days, including corporate tax information for a company he directs, and information about his wife's income.
The applicant was granted leave to renew the motion to strike if the respondent fails to comply with the new disclosure order.
Costs submissions were also ordered.
