What is the test for pleading in a notice of civil claim?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from One West Holdings Ltd. v The Owners, Strata Plan LMS2995, 2019 BCSC 707 (CanLII):

The principles governing pleadings are well established. Rules 3-1 and 3-3, which deal with notices of civil claim and responses to civil claim, respectively, require the pleadings to set out concise statements of the material facts. For a very helpful and thorough discussion of these rules and the governing principles, see Sahyoun v. Ho, 2013 BCSC 1143 at paras. 16-26.
