Proud of Ashini and Angela for representing Soloway Wright @ShopprsDrugMart Run for Women in Ottawa! Women are 2x more likely to be diagnosed with depression or anxiety, yet barriers to care remain. Every step helps raise awareness. 💙

UPDATE: The OCA has overturned Handley Estate. A stay of proceedings is no longer the mandatory remedy for failing to disclose partial settlement agreements that change the adversarial landscape. Courts now have discretion under Rule 49.14: https://t.co/CdoSdWH0kc

Can a witness refuse to answer a “legal question” at discovery? Ontario courts say parties may be questioned on their legal positions during discovery. Avoiding those answers can increase cost and delay. Contact Ryan: https://t.co/vQX6Qq5w5T

How “three months’ interest” is characterized in a mortgage agreement can determine whether it’s enforceable when a mortgage is repaid early. Lenders should consult experienced counsel to protect their rights. Connect with Vanessa: https://t.co/hQDFXlwKpM #solowaywright

ON courts continue to strictly enforce disclosure obligations for partial settlement agreements. A recent decision confirms that parties who fail to immediately disclose agreements changing the adversarial landscape may still face a stay of proceedings: https://t.co/uYGlsm3Dtx

Ratcliffe v. CIBC et al reinforces that suspicion alone is not enough in litigation — claims must be backed by evidence. Failing to meet this obligation may result in summary judgment and dismissal of the action: https://t.co/M5fhvwp6s8
