      Part I                  Judicial Decisions on Family Law Cases

 

 

 

 

In this section family law decisions have been evaluated for individual appellate judges. Appeal issues have been classified into 7 general family categories. A single appeal may involve more than one issue and therefore receive multiple entries. It may also involve cross appeals by the opposing spouse. Costs refers to costs of the appeal. If costs of lower court rulings are a primary appeal issue they have been included in the category of other. Since the costs of the appeal represents a secondary discretionary ruling by the court, it has been given extended analysis in both magnitude and application. Summaries of the data can be found on pages 28. A full listing of the cases and decisions are given in appendixes A1 to A26 starting on page 58.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For Justice Abella, 53 family cases were available, and 51 of them had data on cost penalties. 21 appeals were innitiated by females and 32 appeals by males. 4 cross appeals were brought by women and 3 by men. The cases and their outcomes can be found in Appendix A1. A summary of the decisions is as follows

It can be concluded that in the overall result including costs, a woman has a (58/87 x 100) 66.7 % chance of winning, and a man has a (11/107 x 100) 10.2 % % chance of winning when appearing before a panel with Justice Abella on it. On appeal issues alone a woman to has a (26/36 x 100) 72.2 % chance of winning, and a man has a (5/56 x 100) 8.9 % chance of winning. Success as decided by cost penalties assigned was 11.7 % in favor of men, 62.7 % in favor of females and divided 25.6 % of the time.

 

 

 

Overall Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 66.7 – 10.2 = 56.5 %

 

Appeal Issue Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 72.2 – 8.9 = 63.3 %

 

Cost Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 62.7 – 11.7 = 51.0 %

 

 

 

Female / Male Wins = 66.7 / 10.2 = 6.5

 

Win Index = ( Female Wins + Male Wins ) / 2 = ( 66.7 + 10.2) / 2 = 76.9 / 2 = 38.5 %

 

 

 

 

For Justice Feldman 52 family cases were available, and 51 of them had data on cost penalties. 23 appeals  were innitiated by women and 29 by men. 3 cross appeals were brought by women and 2 by men.

It can be concluded that in the overall result including costs, a woman has a (17/27 x 100) 63.0 % chance of winning, and a man has a (13/45 x 100) 28.9 % chance of winning when appearing before a panel with Justice Macfarland on it. On appeal issues alone a woman to has a (5/8 x 100) 62.5 % chance of winning, and a man has a (10/28 x 100) 35.7 % chance of winning. Success as decided by cost penalties assigned was 21.0 % in favor of men, 63.2 % in favor of females and divided 15.8 % of the time.

 

 

 

Overall Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 63.0 – 28.9 = 34.1 %

 

Appeal Issue Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 62.5 – 35.7 = 26.8 %

 

Cost Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 63.2 – 21.0 = 41.4 %

 

 

 

Female / Male Wins = 63.0 / 28.9 = 2.2

 

Win Index = ( Female Wins + Male Wins ) / 2 = ( 63.0 + 28.9 ) / 2 = 91.9 / 2 = 46.0 %

 

 

 

 

For Justice Rouleau 20 family cases were available, and 19 of them had data on cost penalties. 8 appeals were innitiated by females and 12 appeals by males. 1 cross appeal was brought by a man. The cases and their outcomes can be found in Appendix A26. A summary of the decisions is as follows

It can be concluded that in the overall result including costs, a woman has a (16/31 x 100) 51.6 % chance of winning, and a man has a (6/35 x 100) 17.1 % chance of winning when appearing before a panel with Justice Rouleau on it. On appeal issues alone a woman to has a (4/12 x 100) 33.3 % chance of winning, and a man has a (2/16 x 100) 12.5 % chance of winning. Success as decided by cost penalties assigned was 21.0 % in favor of men, 63.2 % in favor of females and divided 15.7 % of the time.

 

 

 

Overall Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 51.6 – 17.1 = 34.5 %

 

Appeal Issue Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 33.3 – 12.5 = 20.8 %

 

Cost Discrimination Index = % Female Wins - % Male Wins = 63.2 – 21.0 = 42.2 %

 

 

Female / Male Wins = 51.6 / 17.1 = 3.0

 

Win Index = ( Female Wins + Male Wins ) / 2 = ( 51.6 + 17.1) / 2 = 68.7 / 2 = 34.4 %
