Quebec Appeal Court to Decide if it Has Jurisdiction to Hear the Appeal of the Turcotte Judgement
June 11 2019 - 6:20AM
Canada Carbon Inc. (the “Company”) (TSX-V:CCB),
(FF:U7N1) provides a further update to the Company’s May
21, 2019 press release where the attorneys for Canada Carbon
attended the Quebec Court of Appeal to review the judgment rendered
by Judge Turcotte, who ruled that the Company’s action for damages
against the Municipality of Grenville-sur-la-Rouge (“GSLR”) was not
a SLAPP action.
Before the commencement of the attorney’s
presentations, the judges of the Quebec Court of Appeal indicated
they were questioning whether they even had jurisdiction to hear
this appeal by Grenville-sur-la-Rouge. They ruled instead that the
attorneys for each party would present their arguments and position
in a 10-page written document.
GSLR attorneys were required to submit their
written arguments to the Court of Appeal by June 3, 2019, which
they did. Canada Carbon’s attorneys were to have their written
arguments submitted not later than June 18, 2019, however they
filed their 10-page document today, on June 11, 2019.
The Court of Appeal will analyze the arguments
of both parties and it will decide whether it has jurisdiction to
hear the appeal. A written judgment will be sent to both parties
eventually without the parties having to appear in court.
If the Quebec Court of Appeal concludes that it
does not have jurisdiction, the Turcotte judgment would then be
confirmed, verifying that Canada Carbon’s damage claim is neither a
SLAPP action nor is it abusive.
