Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from TISI v. RABY, 2018 ONSC 5284 (CanLII):
The fact that the principles in Corcoran allowing third party claims to stand, are restricted to situations where the third-party is alleged to have participated in the events giving rise to the initial loss and where there is the possibility of a claim against the third party for which the plaintiff may not be responsible was recently reaffirmed in Hengeveld v. The Personal Insurance Company, 2018 ONSC 4712 (CanLII) (S.C.J.).
