How have the courts treated objections to paragraphs in the affidavits of the father in a custody/access matter?

Nova Scotia, Canada


The following excerpt is from M.A.B. v. L.A.B., 2013 NSSC 89 (CanLII):

Counsel on behalf of the Mother has raised several objections to paragraphs in the Father’s affidavits. As is often the case neither counsel wanted to take the time to discuss each complaint and receive an individual ruling for each complaint. I have applied the same analysis to the objections raised as I did in Clark v. Saberi, 2012 NSSC 310. I do not intend to review the results of that analysis in detail. I have rejected irrelevant material in all affidavits filed in this proceeding. I have ignored opinions, speculations, commentary, hearsay, submissions, innuendo and argument. Custody/Access
