Is there any written documentation supporting a conclusion the advances were legal enforcement loans?
Nova Scotia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Ferla v. Ferla; Ferla v. Ferla, 2007 NSSC 30 (CanLII):
Here, there is no written documentation to support a conclusion the advances were loans capable of legal enforcement. However, as found by Justice Dellapinna in Dauphinee v. Dauphinee, supra, depending on the facts presented, it is possible to conclude there is a legally enforceable debt without supportive written documentation.
