Is there any difference between the actions of a man and a woman who has committed acts of sexual assault on the same person?
Alberta, Canada
The following excerpt is from Builders Holdings Ltd. v. Gasland Properties Ltd., 2001 ABQB 823 (CanLII):
However, I do not think this necessarily complicates limitations law. In fact, I think it avoids the situation alluded to in Dean v. Kociniak, 2001 ABQB 412, (2001) 92 Alta. L.R. (3d) 92, where there was the possibility that the two acts applied to the same facts and issues.
