In a motor vehicle accident case, how have the tax implications of an award been considered?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Wincheruk v. Dawe and Diehl, 1986 CanLII 3200 (SK QB):

Mary refers me to Cudmore v. Tabin, 1984 CanLII 2648 (SK QB), 32 Sask. R. 105. Tax implications were taken into account. That case deals with a fatal accident. In such an event, the award should reflect tax considerations. Andrews, supra, at page 259.
