What is the legal obligation of the Estate of the deceased to dispose of the body in a proper manner?

In my view, this really is the crux of this decision. I am keenly aware that the decision in this case prevents me with the same dilemma as was faced by Rutherford J. in the decision in Mouaga where he stated: “There is no satisfying the wishes of both sides by any decision that I have been able to conceive in the circumstances…” I am also keenly aware as noted by Farley J. in Abeziz v. Harris Estate[6] that there is no legal right in a corpse, there are only obligations. As he noted in that case, the fundamental obligation is that the body be appropriately dealt with, that is disposed of in a dignified fashion. I further adopt he comments in that case where he noted: “The appreciation of this distress means that the task of this decision is very painful for me.”
