What is the proper procedure for naming all parties to an appeal?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Moulton Contracting Ltd. v. Behn, 2014 BCCA 134 (CanLII):
In my view, generally, the better practice is to name all of the parties to the proceedings from which an appeal is taken (Boe v. Murphy, 2013 BCCA 498 at paras. 13-18). If parties are not named, they may have no opportunity to consider whether their interests may be affected. Parties whose interests are not affected by the relief sought on appeal need not enter an appearance or may apply to have the appeal struck as against them.
