[quote site 2005.07/06]
In 2005 he co-taught the UVIC Faculty of Law Real Property Transactions - Law 317 course from Sept. to Dec. 2005.
The course description includes "... Real property transactions form an important part of the commercial life of Canadian society. For most people, their single most important financial transaction will be the purchase of their home and the financing of it. For most businesses, purchasing land, leasing premises and financing by use of security on land is an important part of their operations.
This course is intended to introduce ... the fundamental legal issues involved in a real estate transaction. We will look at the process of the sale transaction from the listing of property and the obligations of the realtor to problems involved in the purchaser's enforcing remedies after closing of the transaction. We will spend a significant amount of the course on the fundamentals of mortgage transactions, including the implied terms of a mortgage, common mortgage provisions and the enforcement of mortgage security. If time permits, we will look briefly at leases, with particular note of the commercial leasing transaction. ..." [quote from course description at www.law.uvic.ca/Current_Students/

INFORMATION ARTICLE
Privacy Laws & Private Investigators
By Janie A. Duncan, P.I.
05.2005
The case of Ferenczy vs. MCI Medical Clinics, a decision rendered in the Ontario Superior Court by Justice Dawson will greatly limit the force of the new federal privacy law as it relates to private investigators.
This case involves a patient named D. Ferenczy. She sued her doctor for professional negligence in the diagnosis and the treatment of a cyst located on the inner part of her left wrist. The procedure was carried out on February 17, 1999. The plaintiff, D. Ferenczy, claimed that as a result of the failed procedure, she was unable to hold small items for a long period of time with her left hand. She further claimed that she was unable to work, and she subsequently claimed she suffered a loss of income.
The defendant, the doctor, disputed her claim. A private investigator was retained by the Canadian Medical Protective Association. This association provides defense assistance to physicians who are being sued for medical malpractice claims. The private investigator conducted a surveillance on Ms. Ferenczy and collected an eight minute video surveillance footage of Ms. Ferenczy holding a coffee cup at a coffee shop without any visible signs of physical impairment. This investigation was carried out without the knowledge and consent of Ms. Ferenczy.
