What is the test for making an interim order in a personal injury case?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Palod v. MacDonald, 2018 ONCJ 507 (CanLII):

As stated by the court in Orsini v. Orsini,[13] The motions court cannot conduct a complete inquiry into all aspects and details or make final findings of fact regarding entitlement and quantum of support. An interim order is designed to be a “holding order” to get the parties to trial by considering the strength of the claims, on (usually conflicting and incomplete) motion materials and the particular circumstances of the case in an effort to achieve fairness to the parties by balancing financial needs, means and any hardship to the parties should an interim order be made or not made.
