A&B’s Philip Healey successfully obtained the dismissal of an ongoing commercial action. The case, which had been outstanding for years, was commenced by Indcondo Building Corporation and claimed $20,000,000 against various defendants.
In a trial that lasted several weeks, A&B defended a franchisor, Baton Rouge Restaurants Corporation (“BRRC”) et al., in an action by a franchisee alleging breach of a right of first refusal for an additional franchise location and breach of the Arthur Wishart Act (Franchise Disclosure), 2000, S.O. 2000, c. 3. On November 14, 2011, Ontario Superior Court Justice David Brown issued a 109 page decision, in which he dismissed the plaintiff’s $15 million claim in its entirety as against all defendants.
We are pleased to announce the publication of a new book by senior partner Donald West, entitled “Business Acquisition Agreements – an Annotated Guide.”
This 600 page book, published by Canada Law Book, a Division of Thomson Reuters, is a comprehensive guide for business purchasers, sellers, investors and their advisors.
