British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Mancinelli v Mancinelli, 2021 BCSC 94 (CanLII):

I am not convinced that the claimant has met the burden of proving that the marriage-like relationship commenced in September or November 2000 when she moved into the old house as a renter. The burden is on the claimant to prove this and she has failed to do so: Ashton v. Hales, 2017 BCSC 1928.
