Alternative forms of relief
36 Alternative forms of relief
Although a particular form of relief is sought by a party to an action, the Court may grant any other form of relief that it considers more appropriate to the circumstances of the case.
In particular—
where a party seeks relief by way of injunction or specific performance, the Court may award damages in addition to or in substitution for such relief;
where a party seeks foreclosure of the equity of redemption in mortgaged property, the Court may, instead of ordering foreclosure—
direct the sale of the mortgaged property; or
direct a transfer of the mortgage debt and security to a person who agrees to assume the debt. (This subsection is not exhaustive.)
