What is the limitation period for a motion for summary judgment against a defendant for refusing to cooperate?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Yifru v. Certas Direct Insurance Company, 2010 ONSC 2109 (CanLII):
I find the defendant’s refusal does not meet the minimum requirements set out in Smith v. Co-operators and hence the limitation period has not been triggered. I therefore dismiss the defendant’s motion for summary judgment. COSTS
