The defendant buyer in an aborted real estate transaction sought to have her case managed and tried together with six other similar actions involving the same developer.
The defendant raised environmental issues as a defence to the plaintiff's claim for damages.
The court dismissed the request for case management and a common trial, finding that a single 30-day trial would cause delay and that proceeding with a summary trial in the present action would be more efficient and could provide early rulings to streamline the other cases.
