Montreal (City of) v. Steckler

1. The Court‑‑We all agree with the Court of Appeal, [1983] C.A. 215, that the phrase "any subsequent purchaser" in s. 792 of the Charter of the City of Montreal, 1960, S.Q. 1959‑60, c. 102, includes the purchaser in a judicial sale, that the Charter makes no distinction in respect of the latter and that there is no reason to make a distinction where the law makes none. The Court does not rule on whether appellants could set up against respondent an estoppel which was rejected by the Court of Appeal and was not put forward by appellants. The appeal is dismissed with costs.

Appeal dismissed with costs.

Solicitors for the respondent: Péloquin, Allard & Lacroix, Montréal.
