During the first stage of a civil proceeding, what is the test for determining if a person is entitled to a certain amount?

Nova Scotia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Garnier v. Garnier, 2021 NSSC 173 (CanLII):

During the second stage, I must determine if I can ascertain the amount involved. I cannot because the most contentious issue was nonmonetary. Further, the rule of thumb approach is not appropriate as reviewed in KG v. HG, 2021 NSSC 142, paras 17 to 23.
