"GM Prevails in Thwarting Class of Unharmed Consumers", FMC Focus on Class Actions, September 2009

Author(s): Nahmiash, Laurent

Date: September 15 2009

In this newsletter:

On September 14, 2009, the Québec Court of Appeal rendered a much anticipated and seminal consumer law class action decision in Contat v. General Motors of Canada Limited (GMCL) and General Motors Acceptance Corporation of Canada Limited (GMAC). The Court of Appeal effectively dismissed Mr. Contat’s motion for leave to institute a class action, with costs, thereby endorsing the first instance decision of Justice Sylviane Boresntein, J.S.C., which had been rendered on August 7, 2007.
