Asbestos Corporation Limited, 2026 QCCS 3818
The Québec Superior Court authorized the court appointed monitor in an asbestos restructuring to accept late proofs of claim for filing only where written evidence establishes excusable neglect, good faith, reasonable diligence, unintentional delay and no material prejudice, with filing within 60 days of approval. Acceptance doesn't establish the claim's validity or amount, waive objections or extend the general bar date, which preserves both access for deserving late claimants and certainty for the restructuring.
