Warren A. Lyon

The moving party sought to review an order of Doherty J.A. that denied an extension of time to appeal an order refusing to set aside a default judgment for the sale of mortgaged property.

The Court of Appeal found no error in the previous decision, noting the moving party had not moved promptly after learning of the default judgment and the property had already been sold.

The motion to review was dismissed with costs.

The appellant sought an adjournment of his appeal after failing to comply with a previous order requiring him to bring a motion for an adjournment by a specified date.

The Court of Appeal granted the adjournment to ensure fairness, as the appellant was in the process of retaining counsel.

The adjournment was granted on strict conditions, including the payment of $8,673.39 in costs by a specified date, failing which the respondent could move to dismiss the appeal.
