How much detail is required in a common issues plan?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Watson v. Bank of America Corporation, 2014 BCSC 532 (CanLII):
The detail of a plan should correspond to the complexity of the action. Further, less detail is required concerning individual issues that will need to be decided after the common issues trial, as discovery has not taken place (White v. Canada (Attorney General), 2004 BCSC 99 at paras. 151-153).
