Toronto Regional Real Estate Board v. R E STATS Inc. (Redatum), 2024 FC 1213
Associate Justice Crinson - 2024-07-30
Read full decision. Automatically generated summary:
RE STATS brought a motion to strike the Statement of Claim in its entirety and without leave to amend principally on the basis of their argument that the Statement of Claim in pith and substance is not within the jurisdiction of the Federal Court. Rather they argue the pith and substance are matters of breach of confidentiality, assertion of unspecified “proprietary rights” and breach of contract. ... TRREB, by its motion, seeks to amend its existing pleading such that any causes of action not grounded in the Copyright Act are removed, adding additional facts to its pre-existing claim for copyright infringement and adding an allegation that the copyright in its TRREB MLS System and TRREB MLS Content includes broadcasts which are alleged to have been reproduced. ... The Court is satisfied, taking a realistic view based on the records before it, that the proposed Fresh Amended Statement of Claim when examined in the context of the law and the litigation process meets the threshold of having a reasonable prospect of success.
