Facts: Qi Ling (Cindy) Chen and Chen (2018) Family Trust brought legal applications against Patrick Dang, SELC Canada Education Group Ltd., SELC English Language Center Canada Ltd., and SELC Career College Canada Ltd. The issues arose from a joint investment to purchase educational companies, which led to disagreements and litigation.

Legal Issues: Chen and her Family Trust sought an order to produce accounting records and to strike out Dang's action and oppression claims against them. Dang countered by alleging that Chen failed to fulfill her $500,000 investment commitment and improperly interfered with company management. He sought relief based on these claims of oppression.

Court's Decision: The court did not strike Dang's action, finding reasonable grounds in his claim that Chen did not complete her investment as agreed. The oppression claims Dang raised were mostly allowed to proceed, as the court found plausible grounds for these based on Chen's alleged misconduct. The court required Dang to amend his petition to include the companies as respondents.

Costs and Awards: The document did not specify the total amount of costs or the award in favor of the successful party as the case was primarily about allowing the legal actions to proceed and the amendment of claims.
