| Decision: |
Application by the Defendant for an order striking out the statement of claim on the ground that it disclosed no reasonable cause of action or in the alternative for an order extending the time limit to file a statement of defence. The action alleged that Canada had constructively expropriated the Plaintiffs' goodwill in a fish exporting business and the Plaintiffs were seeking compensation. The application to strike out the statement of claim was dismissed. An order was granted extending the time limit to file a statement of defence. Costs were awarded to the Plaintiffs. |
