British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Quibell v. Rougeau, 2012 BCSC 1102 (CanLII):
Although these criteria were first established in a criminal case, they apply to civil cases, albeit with some shift in emphasis. In civil cases, the due diligence requirement is more strictly applied (see Topgro Greenhouses v. Houweling, 2004 BCCA 39 at paragraph 26).
