Contextual Approach to Section 29.1 of the Class Proceedings Act, 1992</a></h3> <strong>October 25, 2024</strong> <p> In McRae-Yu v Profitly Incorporated et. al., 2024 ONSC 5615 (McRae-Yu) the Ontario Superior Court of Justice refused to dismiss a proposed class action for delay under section 29.1 of the Class Proceedings Act, 1992. McRae-Yu aligns with other decisions that have refused to dismiss proceedings that are not wholly dormant and are being actively pursued in some way. These cases take a functional and contextual (rather than literal) approach to the interpretation of the language of section 29.1, underscoring that section 29.1 is not a “zero tolerance” regime designed to “catch plaintiffs out”. </p> </div> <div class="row " data-categories="{6A7D4429-6D90-47D9-88E1-76E232D32A17} {32E42E72-0229-4ED7-9236-660F90D54E1C} {C72A4EF0-21F4-4F21-ABB7-47E0FDBBC639} {7666CB6C-7CA6-4CC6-BDB4-2124B05F27F9} {8FBC1089-CECB-4DBD-8602-ECF8CA68742E} {C1D39922-5707-49A6-A00B-42F779EA57F7}"> <h3><a href="/Blogs-Section/Mixed-Success-at-The-BC-Supreme-Court-in-Rare-Common-Issues-Trial-in-Employment-Class-Action">Mixed Success at the B.C.

Class Proceedings Act creates a presumptive no-costs regime in British Columbia for certification applications and after actions have been certified as class proceedings. This is in contrast to some other provinces, such as Ontario, where there is no such rule. However, two recent decisions from the British Columbia Supreme Court confirm that the normal cost rules still apply in British Columbia prior to certification, including to pre-certification applications that are heard concurrently with certification. </p> </div> <div class="row " data-categories="{E9F2C407-69A7-45BC-B25E-2D2636D52171} {7666CB6C-7CA6-4CC6-BDB4-2124B05F27F9} {C72A4EF0-21F4-4F21-ABB7-47E0FDBBC639} {8FBC1089-CECB-4DBD-8602-ECF8CA68742E}"> <h3><a href="/Blogs-Section/Superior-Court-of-Quebec-Warns-of-the-Risks-of-Making-Settlement-Approval-Contingent-on-Approval">Superior Court of Quebec Warns of the Risks of Making Settlement Approval Contingent on Approval of Class Counsel Fees </a></h3> <strong>September 06, 2024</strong> <p> In Walid c.
