British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Lantzius v. Lantzius, 2015 BCSC 2066 (CanLII):
Rule 8-2 (7)(b) and (c) should receive a broad purposive interpretation. In family law, it is often useful to have before the court all persons necessary to the adjudication. See, for example, Arnink v. Arnink, 1999 CanLII 5326 (BC SC), [1999] B.C.J. No. 2712, 2 R.F.L. (5th) 24, (B.C.S.C.).
