In what circumstances will a court order that a plaintiff be examined by a psychologist?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Prendeville v. Sanghera et al, 2004 BCSC 1117 (CanLII):
In the decision of Mattis v. Almer, [1992] B.C.J. No. 131, Master Powers (as he then was) was faced with an unusual set of circumstances not unlike those in the application before me. The defendant in that action obtained an order that the plaintiff be examined by a psychologist. No order was made for the production or delivery of that report. The plaintiff’s position on the application was that they were not interested in report and did not wish to be required to produce all of their medical reports. A subsequent application was made by the defendant for examination by psychiatrist and a neurologist.
