Can a judge vary the order of a single judge?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Hawkeye Power Corporation v. Sigma Engineering Ltd., 2018 BCCA 69 (CanLII):
… I cannot see merit to the applications to vary. The test to vary an order of a single judge is narrow: a division of the court must be satisfied that the judge was wrong in law, wrong in principle, or misconceived the facts: Haldorson v. Coquitlam (City) 2000 BCCA 672. In the context of an order for security for costs, that may extend to consideration of problems not anticipated by the judge when established the terms for posting.
