Summary

Case summaries are prepared by the Office of the Registrar of the Supreme Court of Canada (Law Branch). Please note that summaries are not provided to the Judges of the Court. They are placed on the Court file and website for information purposes only.

In October 2019, the respondent, the Royal Bank of Canada, sued the applicant, Suzanne J. Tremblay, for reimbursement of a demand loan and other credit facilities. The total amount claimed by the respondent, excluding interest, was $251,236.10, which the applicant acknowledged owing. The applicant filed a counter-application seeking a total of approximately $335,000. The trial judge allowed the respondent’s application and ordered the applicant to pay the respondent the total sum of $251,236.10, plus interest. He dismissed the applicant’s counter application. The applicant appealed the decision and the respondent filed a motion to dismiss the appeal. The Court of Appeal granted the respondent’s motion and dismissed the appeal.
