What is the relevant delay in perfecting an appeal?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Tran v. Schwartz, 2014 ONSC 1593 (CanLII):

The delay in this case is substantial; at its worst it is 1 year and at its best it is 9 months, depending on the starting point. I am mindful that this far exceeds the timeframe that was at issue in Doobay v. Diamond[1], where Karakatsanis J.A. found a 6 month delay in perfecting an appeal to be significant.
