Is there an urgency to disbursement for a private MRI?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Perron v. Catalano, 2016 BCSC 1285 (CanLII):

The third party takes the position that there was no evidence of urgency to support the disbursement for a private MRI. The trial was not scheduled to begin until December 2015, 16 months after the MRI was done. The plaintiff was on a cancellation list and, the submission is, would likely have been provided with an appointment in the public healthcare system in sufficient time to prepare for trial. Further the third party submits that interest on disbursements is not a recoverable disbursement: MacKenzie v. Rogalasky, 2014 BCCA 446.
