Facts: Pratibha Dixit, a former student at Humber College, accused her instructor, Hasnain Dattu, of breach of fiduciary duty, alleging he exploited his position to initiate a sexual relationship with her. Dixit claimed Dattu provided her with MDMA and engaged in sexual activities with her while offering professional opportunities.
Issues: The court examined whether Dattu had a fiduciary duty to Dixit, the nature of their relationship, and the consent to the sexual relationship and drug use.
Court's Ruling:
Costs/Damages: No costs were awarded for the motion due to the novel issues and some merit in Dixit’s position, indicating the matter required a detailed examination at trial.
