Summary
Keywords
Courts – Judges – Whether Chief Justice of trial court erred by designating same judge who originally heard an application to hear it again after the application was remitted by the Court of Appeal
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.
The applicant was successful on an appeal of an order striking out his claim in this action. The appeal court remitted the matter for redetermination in the lower court. The applicant sought the appointment of a case management judge to hear that, and other, applications in the action.
The Chief Justice of the trial court declined to appoint a case management judge and exercised his statutory authority to distribute the court’s work among its judges. He designated the same judge who originally heard the case to continue to hear it.
The applicant sought leave to appeal that order. A single judge of the Court of Appeal held that none of the applicant’s proposed grounds of appeal were of sufficient merit to warrant granting leave, and dismissed the application with costs.
