Clearly Legal, Kristy McLaren Freelance Law Clerk

09/02/2026

I have found myself regularly fascinated by what is contemplated in law and legislation, and what is not, as well as origin stories and previous legislation. I learned about some of the stipulations about names, how you are entitled to be referred to in Ontario if you were not born in Ontario, and that whatever name you had in June of 1939 is still effect (if you are still alive) regardless of the Enactment of the Change of Name Act. Lawyers, if you want to work with a clerk who finds this interesting, contact me at: [email protected]. Elbows Up, Canada.

I had planned a different post about Short Motions, I double checked myself. Good thing. There are too many categories. There are too many different ways. I've corrected myself a few times on this post. So, with this being basically copy and pasted from the PD, if this post helps anyone, amazing!! Lawyers, if someone who has the patience to figure this out for you (I'm literally doing this for a client today, massive deep dive into the PD) sounds LOVELY, contact me at: [email protected].

You are supposed to provide your evidence with you do a Plaintiff Claim or Defence. There are people who (for some reason) don't. This rule speaks to that (for amendments at least). Provide the document or explain why you aren't. Lawyers, I have lots of Small Claims experience. I am delighted to help organize your documents, or help explain why you don't have them.
