What is the legal test for bringing a motion of no confidence in the Superior Court of Justice for the purpose of setting a date for the motion to be adjourned?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Law Society of Ontario v. Kinnaird, 2022 ONLSTH 24 (CanLII):

As described in Law Society of Ontario v. Desrochers, 2018 ONLSTH 148, given the length of the notice on which the motion can be brought, it is not uncommon for motions of this nature to proceed in two steps: with the first appearance often being adjourned, sometimes with an order for an interim interlocutory suspension being made at the time the adjournment is granted.
