Status of persons – Appointment of Public Guardian and Trustee – Family law – Whether it would be proper to refer a matter not disposed of on merits during an appeal for its re-opening as opposed to quashing.

In the context of family law proceedings, Ms. Shkuryna sought an order appointing the Office of the Public Guardian and Trustee as legal representative to Mr. Must. The order was granted along with an interim order that Ms. Shkuryna was to have custody of the child and Mr. Must supervised access. Mr. Must’s appeal to the Ontario Superior Court was dismissed and his appeal to the Court of Appeal was quashed.
