Is there a tort of conversion or wrongful possession of property against the Respondent?

22. The applicant’s claim against the respondent is arguably also one of conversion, although he did not expressly rely on conversion. The tort of conversion involves wrongfully holding on to another’s property and claiming title or ownership of that property. According to Li v. Li, 2017 BCSC 1312, the applicant must prove: a. a wrongful act by the respondent involving the applicant’s goods, b. that the act consisted of handling, disposing, or destroying the goods, and c. the respondent’s actions effectively or intentionally interfered with, or denied, the applicant’s right or title to the goods.
