When civil litigation files go stale, the plaintiff runs the risk that their claim will be administratively dismissed by the court Registrar if the action is not set down for trial within five (5) years.\u00a0 Its always a risky situation for a plaintiff, as was evident in this case where the judge refused to restore the dismissed claim.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This case outlines what a Plaintiff must do in order to convince the court to restore the action.\u00a0 The Plaintiff:<\/p>\n

(1) must try to provide an explanation for the delay;<\/p>\n

(2) must try to establish that the oversight was inadvertent and not deliberate;<\/p>\n

(3) must try to bring a motion to set aside the Registrar\u2019s dismissal order promptly;<\/p>\n

(4) must try to satisfy the court that there is no overt prejudice to the defendant(s) in allowing the claim to proceed.<\/p>\n

The Court reminds us that not all of the above criteria need to be established, and in addition, no one factor is decisive.\u00a0 Indeed, the court can consider other factors as well, if relevant.\u00a0 The presiding judge is to consider the matter contextually, balancing all the relevant factors with a view to finding the just result that considers both the hope that matters will be decided on their merits and the need for litigation to be prosecuted in a timely fashion.<\/p>\n

In the case for the judge in this instance, the judge concluded that the Plaintiff was not able to satisfy any of the four criteria above.\u00a0 As such, there was no real \u201cbalancing\u201d required to come to the conclusion that the Registrar’s dismissal order would remain in effect.<\/p>\n
