N. and G. Lazos Building Contractors O.E. v. Kapsalis‑Fragaki 2025 Ont SCJ (AJ)

Action to enforce a Greek judgment. During the Greece proceedings, the debtor entered into an alter ego trust in which title to Ontario land was transferred to the trust. The creditor alleged that this transfer was a fraudulent conveyance; the debtor claimed that the trust was proper and done before the Greek judgment. The associate judge held that there were issues as to the timing of the trust and allowed the motion for a CPL.
