The following excerpt is from The Bank of Nova Scotia v. 1736223 Ontario Limited, 2018 ONSC 4449 (CanLII):
In TD Bank v. Lloyds Underwriters, 2016 ONSC 8006 (CanLII), the court granted partial summary judgment on 3 of 19 claims because the scope of the issues was narrow, concerning interpretation of the insurance policies, and there was no risk of duplication or conflicted findings. The court was able to make claim specific findings of fact that did not affect other transactions or claims.
