In what circumstances will a jury be recalled to a jury on causation in a motor vehicle accident case?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Cheung v. Samra, 2018 ONSC 3480 (CanLII):

In my opinion, given that I had already provided a correcting instruction to the jury on causation, the dangers identified by Eberhard J. in Salter v. Hirst were increased in this case. In my view, recalling the jury to provide yet another instruction on answering the causation questions properly would have served no useful purpose.
