Does the time for appeal generally run from the date of the release of reasons?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Gefen v. Gaertner, 2021 ONCA 631 (CanLII):
The moving party submits that the time for appeal generally runs from the date of the release of the reasons, not from the date that the judgment is finally settled and issued. That proposition, as a general rule, is well supported by authority: Fontaine v. Canada (Attorney General), 2012 ONCA 206, 213 A.C.W.S. (3d) 7.
