What is the test for interim relief in the context of an appeal?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Guillaume v. Barney Rivers Investments Ltd., 2022 ONSC 271 (CanLII):

The test for interim relief is set out in RJR-MacDonald v. Canada (Attorney General), 1994 CanLII 117 (SCC), [1994] 1 S.C.R. 311. Three factors must be considered: (1) whether there is a serious issue to be decided on the appeal; (2) whether the appellant would suffer irreparable harm if the interim relief is not granted; and (3) whether the balance of convenience favours granting the motion.
