What is the standard of review of an order made in the pre-trial process?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Neural Capital GP, LLC v. 1156062 B.C. Ltd., 2019 BCCA 258 (CanLII):
The order in issue here is a discretionary order made in the pre-trial process. Generally, an appellate court will not interfere with a discretionary order unless the judge erred in principle, ignored or misapplied a relevant factor, or was clearly wrong so as to amount to a serious injustice. This standard of review has been set out in many cases of this court, recently summarized in Haida Nation v. British Columbia (Attorney General), 2018 BCCA 462 at para. 19.
