Does a plantiff's failure to communicate his acceptance of the Minutes of Settlement and Release in question breach the terms of a settlement agreement?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Ferron v. Avotus Corp., 2005 CanLII 29655 (ON SC):
The Minutes of Settlement and Release in question are, in my view, documentation of the nature referred to in Fieguth v. Acklands Ltd., supra, and the failure of the plantiff to communicate his acceptance of the documents does not discharge the parties from the settlement agreement reached.
