When will the BCSC admit the Factum?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from A.S. v British Columbia (Director Of Child, Family and Community Services), 2017 BCSC 1175 (CanLII):
The application to admit the Factum related to Petition #4 only. Its purpose, as I understood it, was to provide evidence of post-trial conduct of counsel that may reveal matters such as whether the lawyers were on a frolic of their own. While I accept that in some cases, post-trial conduct can be considered if it informs an assessment of a lawyer’s conduct in the litigation (see Walker v. John Doe, 2014 BCSC 294 at paras. 41-44 and Jodoin at paras. 33-34), I concluded that nothing in the Factum would be probative to the issues that are relevant here.
