A number of changes to the Rules of Civil Procedure came into effect on January 1, 2015.
One of the changes is with respect to obtaining leave to appeal an interlocutory Order of a judge. The former rule 62.02 provided that a notice of motion for leave to appeal must be served within seven dates of the Order. The new rule is a substantial change: r. 62.02(2) provides that the motion for leave to appeal shall be heard in writing.
The change may reduce costs in that it eliminates the need for an argued motion. The test for such appeals remains the same: a conflicting decision and desirable that leave be granted, or good reason to doubt the correctness of the decision and an appeal involving matters of such importance that leave to appeal should be granted.
