How have the courts considered the findings of the predecessor to the s. 211 report?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from R.S.D. v K.D, 2018 BCSC 2416 (CanLII):
The claimant relies on Neault v. Neault, 2011 BCSC 1111 at para. 69, where the court said that the court’s consideration of the predecessor to the s. 211 report should be guided by a proposition that “facts stated in the report are prima facie evidence of their truth”; accordingly, “[e]vidence need not be called to cover all matters referred to in the s. 15 report, which would render the report superfluous”.
