  • Annual Review of Civil Litigation
    ANNUAL REVIEW OF CIVIL LITIGATION 2019 THE HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE TODD L. ARCHIBALD SUPERIOR COURT OF JUSTICE (ONTARIO) 30839744 Discovery as a Forum for Persuasive Advocacy: Art and Science of Persuasion Ð Chapter IX 1 TODD ARCHIBALD,ROGER B. CAMPBELL AND MITCHELL FOURNIE The flash and dash of the courtroom is exhilarating for the lawyer but dangerous for the client. Accordingly, the truly successful lawyer will take his cases there only seldom. When he does go, he will go highly prepared; and that high level of preparation will be made possible by the apparently dull, but fascinatingly powerful tool, of discovery. And when a lawyer has been successful in keeping his client out of a trial, it will most often have been the same tool, discovery, which will have helped him do it.1 I. DISCOVERY AS A FORUM FOR PERSUASIVE ADVOCACY The image of the persuasive litigator is often associated with trials. It is an image that evokes the courtroom scenario and the pressures that accompany it. Here, witnesses are tenaciously cross-examined, answers are carefully assessed, credibility is gauged, and lawyers make their opening and closing addresses in full view of the judge, jury, and public. It is an image that draws on the solemnity and magnitude of trial, where the potential for settlement has long passed and a verdict or judgment is the only potential outcome. It is from this situation, at the end of the litigation process, that our notions of persuasive advocacy are often derived. In this ninth installment of the Art and Science of Persuasion, we look at how persuasive advocacy can and must extend beyond the courtroom.

  • CCPI Memorandum of Argument for Application to Intervene
    Court File No. A-408-09 FEDERAL COURT OF APPEAL BETWEEN: NELL TOUSSAINT Appellant And MINISTER OF CITIZENSHIP AND IMMIGRATION Respondent MEMORANDUM OF ARGUMENT OF THE PROPOSED INTERVENER THE CHARTER COMMITTEE ON POVERTY ISSUES PART ONE: FACTS A. The Proposed Intervener – The Charter Committee on Poverty Issues (CCPI) 1. The Charter Committee on Poverty Issues (CCPI) was granted intervener status at the Federal Court in the present case to address “issues arising from the requirement to pay fees to process Humanitarian and Compassionate (H & C) Applications for permanent residence pursuant to the IRPA [Immigration and Refugee Protection Act] 1 and the impact of such fees on persons living in poverty.” 1 Decision of Prothonothary Aalto, Toronto, Ontario, March 18, 2009 IMM 2926-08. 2 2. In his decision to grant intervener status, Prothonotary Aalto stated that “CCPI and the other intervener LIFT (Low Income Families Together) would be raising arguments relating to sections 7 and 15 of the Charter as well as other arguments relating to patterns of discrimination and inequality, public policy concerns and competing demands on resources.” He found that “this is one of those unique cases that raise issues of public policy, access to justice and discrimination and inequality” such that the Court will benefit from the participation of CCPI and LIFT.2 3. CCPI seeks leave from this Honourable Court to intervene in the appeal to address these same issues as they arise in the Appeal from the Decision of Madam Justice Snider in the Federal Court (2009 FC 873). 3 B.

  • Canadian Tax Journal, Vol. 56, No. 3, 2008
    canadian tax journal / revue fiscale canadienne (2008) vol. 56, no 3, 661 - 707 The Dividing Line Between the Jurisdictions of the Tax Court of Canada and Other Superior Courts David Jacyk* P r é c i s Le droit fiscal est sans aucun doute l’une des branches du droit les plus exigeantes et les plus complexes au Canada. On pourrait penser qu’en matière de droit fiscal, la question de la juridiction des tribunaux se pose très simplement en ces termes : quel tribunal peut statuer sur les affaires qui concernent l’administration de la législation fiscale? Pourtant, cette question à elle seule a fait l’objet d’un grand nombre de litiges depuis des décennies, devant différents tribunaux de première instance et d’appel partout au Canada, ce qui montre bien la complexité de la question de la compétence des tribunaux dans un état fédéral, et ce, même dans un domaine de droit comme la fiscalité qui est pourtant bien circonscrit. L’abondance de jurisprudence sur la question de la juridiction est particulièrement importante depuis quelques années, et elle comporte plusieurs décisions des cours d’appel qui ont contribué à éclaircir davantage cette question. Ce nouvel éclairage a donné lieu à des développements très appréciés. En reconstituant l’évolution du droit dans ce domaine, le présent article brosse un portrait détaillé et complet du droit et propose une analyse qui s’appuie sur les étapes suivantes : n l’examen de la structure des tribunaux fédéraux et en fiscalité; n la reconstitution de l’évolution de la jurisprudence aussi bien avant qu’après la réorganisation au fédéral du réseau des cours d’appel en fiscalité de 1991; n la prise en compte des décisions des tribunaux provinciaux qui se sont penchés sur cette question de façon indépendante du réseau des tribunaux fédéraux; n la prise en compte de l’ensemble des décisions en matière de rectification, un domaine qui a donné lieu à mon avis à des anomalies, mais des résultats tout de même gérables et prévisibles; * Of the Department of Justice, Ottawa.

  • Practice and Procedure the Applicable Rules Of
    PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE THE APPLICABLE RULES OF EVIDENCE IN FEDERAL COURT: A SHORT PRIMER ON A TRICKY QUESTION Whether at trial or during interlocutory proceedings, litigators need to know the applicable rules of evidence, since there are import- ant variations in provincial evidence law. The largest difference, of course, is between the civil law of QueÂbec and laws of the nine common-law provinces. Yet significant differences exist even between the common law provinces themselves. Admissions made during discovery can be contradicted at trial in Ontario, but not in Saskatchewan.1 Spoliation of evidence requires intentional conduct in British Columbia before remedies will be granted, but not in New Brunswick.2 Evidence obtained through an invasion of privacy is inadmissible in Manitoba, while the other provinces have yet to legislate on this issue.3 1.

    Date: 20080417 Docket: T-866-95 Citation: 2008 FC 497 Vancouver, British Columbia, April 17, 2008 PRESENT: The Honourable Mr. Justice Hugessen BETWEEN: THE MINISTER OF CITIZENSHIP AND IMMIGRATION Applicant and HELMUT OBERLANDER Respondent Docket: T-1505-01 A-294-03 BETWEEN: HELMUT OBERLANDER Applicant (Appellant) and THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF CANADA Respondent PURL: https://www.legal-tools.org/doc/cfef0d/ Page: 2 REASONS FOR ORDER AND ORDER Introduction [1] These reasons deal with motions for orders fixing costs brought by both parties in two distinct but closely related proceedings in this Court. The first of those proceedings was a reference made under section 18 of the Citizenship Act. Following the decision of Justice MacKay on that reference both parties made applications to him for costs orders which were by consent adjourned sine die pending the completion of revocation proceedings before the Governor in Council and the judicial review thereof. Justice MacKay having now retired, and no costs order having been made by him, each party now seeks an Order for its costs of the reference from me. [2] Mr. Oberlander also seeks certain extra-judicial costs allegedly incurred by him in the period following Justice MacKay's decision and culminating in the Governor in Council's decision to revoke his citizenship. [3] Finally, following the revocation decision by the Governor in Council, Mr. Oberlander brought judicial review proceedings which were dismissed by a judge of this Court but later allowed by the Federal Court of Appeal “with costs here and below” and I am now asked to fix the amount of such costs.
