Justice McHaffie - 2023-01-19

Read full decision. Automatically generated summary:

The Defendants, who I will refer to as “British Columbia,” appeal the September 23, 2022, order of Associate Judge Tabib, sitting as Case Management Judge [CMJ], refusing to bifurcate this patent proceeding. For the reasons given below, I conclude CMJ Tabib did not err in law and did not make an overriding and palpable error either in applying that law to the evidence before her or in exercising her discretion not to grant bifurcation. The appeal is therefore dismissed. II. Issues and Standards of Review
