Rinaldo Hair Stylist Limited v. bcIMC Realty Corp.

2013 ONCA 38 (CanLII); Lerners acted for the appellant in an appeal from a summary judgment motion dismissing a landlord and tenant action which centred on the tenant’s option to renew the lease. The Court of Appeal for Ontario upheld the motion judge’s decision to grant summary judgement, as in its view the record available to the trial judge would have been substantially the same as the record considered by the summary motion judge. In the Court’s view, the motion judge properly exercised his discretion in granting summary judgement and dismissing the action.
