The Honourable Madam Justice Ballance has notified counsel that her decision on the issue of the claims by certain persons who failed to opt in to the class action will not be handed down for about six weeks. By our calculation, that should be by approximately mid-February.
Our judges are extremely busy on many cases, and delays of this nature are not unusual.
Once the decision is rendered, we hope to be in a position to work with the actuary, Mr. Demner, to conclude the final distribution.
