04 May Chow-Hidasi v. Hidasi
Liability for a single-motor-vehicle accident is the issue on this summary trial. On January 26, 2007 the parties were on route from their home in Peachland to Vancouver by way of Highway 97C . As they approached the summit the defendant, Mr. Hidasi, lost control of the car. The plaintiff, Mrs. Chow-Hidasi, was in the front passenger seat.

28 Apr Breberin v. Santos
THE COURT: This is an application by the defendants in this motor vehicle action for an order requiring the plaintiff, Dragana Breberin, to attend at a medical examination at the office of Dr. Stephen Wiseman at one o'clock on July 8, 2011, at St. Paul's Hospital. The purpose of that attendance is for Dr. Wiseman to examine the plaintiff and prepare a medical-legal report for the assistance of the defendants in addressing the plaintiff's claim at trial. There is agreement between the parties that the defendants are entitled to have the plaintiff attend at an independent medical examination by a psychiatrist and there is no challenge to Dr. Wiseman's specific qualifications to perform that examination. The issue before me is whether the examination of the plaintiff, if ordered by the court, should take place where the plaintiff resides, Edmonton, Alberta, or whether the defendants are entitled to choose the place of the examination as well as the expert who will conduct the independent medical examination....
20 Apr R.C.L. v. S.C.F.
THE COURT: This is an application for production of Elizabeth Fry records in a personal injury case. These records relate to the abuse the plaintiff suffered as a child and, presumably, include confidential details of that abuse as well as recommendations of a counsellor. The production is being opposed on the basis that the records are not relevant and that they are privileged. The application is being brought under our new Rule 7-1(1). The relevancy test in the Supreme Court Rules has now narrowed to one of direct relevance, to use the words of the section, "to prove or disprove a material fact", and it is no longer a chain of inquiry test related to any matter in question. I am not satisfied that these records will assist in proving any material fact....
