The respondents originally brought an oppression application, and the appellants brought a cross-application.
The motion judge struck the cross-application on the basis that it sought relief that was or could have been sought in an earlier action commenced by the appellants, which had been dismissed on consent.
On appeal, the appellants sought to resurrect claims for an accounting and compensation for oppression.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, agreeing with the motion judge that the claims were barred by res judicata.
