What is the test for striking out an order in a personal injury case?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Flintstone Concrete v. Peace River, 2003 BCSC 1137 (CanLII):

The court held that while there were inappropriate irregularities in the order, none were of sufficient import to justify striking it out. What was important, according to the court at paragraph 14 was: ... As I read the authorities the main thing is to assure that no one is misled even though he or she might be momentarily puzzled. One is not "left to guess what is meant" as was Wilson J. in Knowles v. Peter. The court therefore allowed the order to stand.
