REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT
(Delivered from the Bench at Vancouver, British
Columbia, on January 25, 2016).
PELLETIER J.A.
[1]
We have not been persuaded that the motions
judge erred in concluding that it was not plain and obvious that Mr. Alani's
application was bound to fail.
[2]
We further add that, notwithstanding the Supreme
Court's decision in Hryniak v. Mauldin, 2014 SCC 7, [2014] 1 S.C.R.
87, it is preferable that the important and complex issues raised by the
application, if they are to be decided, be decided on as complete a record as
possible.
[3]
The appeal will be dismissed with costs fixed in
the amount of $1,500 all inclusive.
