What is the test for a plaintiff to prove that there is a real and substantial possibility of a future event leading to an income loss?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Karst v Foster, 2019 BCSC 1043 (CanLII):
The onus is on the plaintiff to prove that there is a real and substantial possibility of a future event leading to an income loss: Perren v. Lalari, 2010 BCCA 140 [Perren] at para. 32. In other words, the plaintiff must show a real and substantial possibility that his or her income earning capacity as been impaired to some degree by injuries that were caused by the fault of the defendant. Once the onus of proof is discharged, then the question becomes one of quantifying the loss: Perren at para. 32.
