Holt v. Greig, 2021 ONSC 2683

The plaintiffs brought a motion for a Certificate of Pending Litigation (CPL) and an interim injunction regarding a family cottage property.

The parties, who are siblings, disputed ownership and use of the property after the defendant changed the locks and excluded the plaintiffs.

The court found a triable issue regarding the plaintiffs' claim for a constructive or resulting trust based on their financial contributions and historical use.

The court granted the CPL and an interim injunction preserving the status quo, allowing both families exclusive use of separate cottages on the property pending the resolution of the action.

Maloney v. Maloney, 2019 ONSC 5632

The moving parties, named as estate trustees in the deceased's will, brought a motion to remove a notice of objection filed by the responding party, the deceased's daughter.

The responding party alleged undue influence and unfitness of the trustees but provided no evidentiary basis to support her claims.

The court found that the will was validly executed and that the responding party failed to meet the minimal evidentiary threshold required to call the will's validity into question.

The motion was granted, the notice of objection was removed, and the court directed the issuance of the Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee.

Vogrin v. Ticknor et al., 2012 ONSC 2003

Following dismissal of a motion to set aside a registrar’s order dismissing an action for delay under Rule 37.14 of the Rules of Civil Procedure, the court addressed costs of the motion.

The successful defendants sought substantial costs, with one defendant relying on an offer to settle to justify substantial indemnity costs.

The court reviewed the applicable principles under s. 131(1) of the Courts of Justice Act and Rules 57.01 and 57.03, emphasizing proportionality and reasonableness.

While accepting the reasonableness of one defendant’s costs outline, the court found another defendant’s claimed hours excessive.

Taking into account the offer to settle and overall fairness, the court fixed equal costs awards payable by the plaintiffs to each successful defendant.

Respondent Counsel

Vogrin v. Ticknor Estate, 2012 ONSC 1640

The plaintiffs brought a motion to set aside a registrar's order dismissing their action for delay.

The action, which involved allegations of improper diversion of corporate funds and an improvident sale of land, had been dormant for an extended period.

The court applied the Reid factors and found that the plaintiffs failed to adequately explain the litigation delay, failed to prove inadvertence, and failed to rebut the presumption of prejudice that arose due to the passage of time and the expiration of limitation periods.

The motion was dismissed.
