Decisions by ICBC not tolerated by Judges

In the recent case (Glover v. Leakey) the Defendant was involved in a car accident and injured two passengers. One sued and fault was admitted by the defendant and ultimately settlement was reached. The second sued but fault was denied. In the midst of a jury trial, the Plaintiff discovered the inconsistent pleadings and asked for a finding of liability.

The judge on the case said that the inconsistent pleading by the defendant was an abuse of process because the principles such as judicial economy, consistency, finality and the integrity of the administration of justice were violated.

The Judge also said that the plaintiff is entitled to special costs, including the costs of preparation and attendance at trial, as well as special cost of application. Justice was served!
