The lawyer representing a Winnipeg company and its owner failed to convince a judge to keep his clients off the list of defendants in a lawsuit over the construction of the downtown police headquarters building.
The City of Winnipeg says the contractor in charge of building the Winnipeg Police Service headquarters used the project to settle outstanding debts with subtrades for money owed on other construction projects, new court filings reveal.
The lawyer for McCaine Electric Ltd. says it needs extra time to satisfy the City of Winnipeg’s latest request for documents related to its police headquarters lawsuit, because the company did not receive the motion until mid-May for a court appearance scheduled on May 31.
