What is the test for ordering a section 30 assessment?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Spironello v Spironello, 2015 ONSC 2291 (CanLII):

The parties placed case law before me regarding the test to be used when ordering such an assessment. In Glick v. Cale,[2013] W.D.F.L. 1744 at paragraph 48, Kitely J. listed a variety of factors to be considered when determining when deciding whether or not to order a s. 30 Assessment. Of note, the instant case appears to fit many of the criteria listed including high conflict nature of the separation. ANALYSIS Section 30 Assessment / Office of the Children’s Lawyer
