     REASONS FOR ORDER

RICHARD MORNEAU, PROTHONOTARY:

[1]      This is a motion by the plaintiff under rule 45 of the Federal Court Rules, 1998 (the Rules) to have the plaintiff brought before this Court on January 21, 1999, to attend and testify at the trial of the action for damages he brought against the defendant.

[2]      I take the order of Mr. Justice Denault dated December 11, 1998, to suggest that this trial be conducted as an "action", not as a "simplified action". In my opinion, under the circumstances, had the Court wished to have this action conducted as a simplified action, it would have specifically said so in its order of December 11, 1998.

[3]      Were I now to order this action conducted as a simplified action, the trial scheduled for January 21, 1999"less than eight days from now"would have to be adjourned to a much later date in view of the different preparation both sides would then have to undertake.

[4]      Accordingly, the order sought by the plaintiff under rule 45 will be issued.
