The Ontario Divisional Court granted the application.
Practice - Topic 8984
Appeals - When appeal available - From final judgment or order - Blair was not happy with one of two grounds of a court order made under the Ontario Business Corporations Act - He wanted that finding reversed on appeal - His opponent moved to quash his appeal - The Ontario Divisional Court quashed Blair's appeal because an appeal had to be taken from an order and not just from a ground of an order.
