When will a motion for particulars be granted?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Van-Rob Inc. v Rapid Metals LLC, 2016 ONSC 1321 (CanLII):
A motion for particulars usually will not be granted unless the moving party deposes that the particulars are not within his or her knowledge and that they are needed to plead; however, a supporting affidavit is not required if the allegations are so general and bald that it is clear that particulars of them are necessary (Pennyfeather v. Timminco Ltd., [2011] ONSC 4257).
