The Alberta Rules of Court were amended August 21, 2015 by AR 128/2015.
Rule 4.19 adds a third document that may result from a JDR: “a transcript of proceedings made in open court at the time of the judicial dispute resolution process which records the outcome of [that] process.”
New rule 4.20(4) provides for the use of statements made or documents generated for or in the JDR process to prove the fact that a settlement was reached or the terms of the settlement.
How much disclosure will this amendment permit or require? Does it cover expert reports that might go to quantum?
