The applicant, Lin Zhang, brought a motion for leave to amend her Application in an estate matter.
The proposed amendments included seeking the removal of Shu De Rong as Estate Trustee and her own appointment, an election for equalization of net family property under the Family Law Act (FLA), dependent's relief under the Succession Law Reform Act (SLRA), and an accounting, preservation, and restitution related to foreign estate assets.
The court dismissed the motion, finding that the requests for executor removal and foreign asset claims suffered from presumed prejudice due to lengthy delays and lacked prima facie merit or sufficient evidentiary basis.
The court also dismissed the application to extend the FLA limitation period, noting no apparent grounds for relief or good faith delay, and found the dependent's relief amendment unnecessary as it was already an alternative claim.
