Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Muncan v. Muncan, 2021 ONSC 1369 (CanLII):
Offers to settle play an integral role in saving time and expense by promoting settlements, focusing parties, and often narrowing the issues in dispute. Severable offers to settle or separate offers to settle specific issues are particularly helpful in attempts to settle cases (see Forlippa v. Khabemba, 2019 ONCJ 170, at para. 34).
