2) give full particulars of the claim against the defendant and highlight potential defenses;
3) show that the defendant has assets in the jurisdiction;
4) show that there is a real risk of the assets being removed out of the jurisdiction, or disposed of before trial and that the plaintiff will be unable to satisfy a potential judgment; and
5) give an undertaking as to damages.
What is an Anton Piller Order?
The jurisdiction to issue a private search warrant rests with the Ontario Superior Court. An Anton Piller order essentially authorizes a private party to insist on entrance to the premises of the party it believes has defrauded them in order to seize and preserve evidence which will assist in furthering its claim.
In order to apply for an Anton Piller Order, a Plaintiff must show 4 elements: 1) a strong prima facie case; 2) damage to the plaintiff of the defendant’s alleged misconduct, potential or actual, and must be very serious; 3) convincing evidence that defendant possesses incriminating documents or things; and 4) a real prospect that the defendant may destroy the material before discovery.
