Law360 Canada ( November 7, 2025, 9:38 AM EST) -- Appeal by Pine Glen Thorold Inc. (Pine Glen) from decision of a motion judge dismissing its claim. Pine Glen commenced an action asserting several causes of action against Rolling Meadows Land Development Corporation (Rolling Meadows) and Glen Gordon. The claim arose from an agreement of purchase and sale pursuant to which Rolling Meadows agreed to sell land to Pine Glen to be developed into individual residential lots (APS). Glen Gordon was Rolling Meadows’ principal. Rolling Meadows brought a motion to strike on the basis that the claim did not disclose a reasonable cause of action. The motion judge found that the allegations in the statement of claim did not support any of the causes of action. He dismissed the claim on that basis and did not address the issue of abuse of process. Pine Glen submitted that the motion judge erred in dismissing three of the causes of action, being, the breach of the duty to act honestly and in good faith in its contractual performance, oppression, and the tort of intimidation. Rolling Meadows submitted that the motion judge did not err in striking all causes of action and in denying leave to amend, and that even if the motion judge made any errors in his analysis, the claim should be dismissed as an abuse of process. Pine Glen responded that its action was not an abuse of process because the first proceedings were applications, in the context of which it could not seek damages, and because it did not know of all the damages it suffered until the applications were decided....
