The Ontario Court of Appeal in Renaissance Leisure Group Inc. v. Frazer had to consider the following scenario"
"A is found liable in tort and, in the same action, successfully claims contribution against B. A then brings a second action claiming contribution from C, who was not named as a party in the first action. Is A bound by the findings of fact in the first action? Is A entitled to assert the claim for contribution against C on the basis that 100 per cent of the fault is to be apportioned between A and C, without regard to the apportionment of fault made against B in the first action?"
The aswers to the questions are NO and NO.
