Judge: |
The Honourable Justice James L. Chipman |
|
Heard: |
March 31 and April 1, 2016 in Halifax, Nova Scotia |
|
Subject: |
Summary judgment on the evidence as per the new Rule 13. |
|
Summary: |
Application by the Plaintiff for summary judgment on evidence in the action against the Defendant, The Estate of Blair Coady. |
|
Issue: |
On the evidence, is there a genuine issue of material fact for trial? |
|
Result: |
Held that with the advent of the new Rule 13 there is no longer a two-part test; however, the analytical framework outlined in Coady v. Burton Canada Co., 2013 NSCA 95, is essentially the same. Determined that the Applicant met its burden as on the evidence there was no genuine material fact for trial. Summary judgment granted in favor of the Plaintiff against the Defendant Estate with damages to be later assessed. |
