Real Scenarios
1
Passenger Rights & Flight Disruptions
Canada's Air Passenger Protection Regulations create specific obligations for airlines during delays, cancellations, and denied boarding. Disputes centre on compensation amounts, exemptions, and airline obligations.
Prompt:
“What cases awarded compensation to passengers for flight delays or cancellations under Canadian rules?”
Casey retrieves decisions analyzing passenger protection regulation triggers, airline safety exemption defences, compensation calculations, and CTA adjudication outcomes.
2
Airline Liability for Injuries & Death
The Montreal Convention governs international airline liability for passenger injury and death. Liability limits, notice requirements, and jurisdictional rules create complex litigation across borders.
Prompt:
“How have courts applied the Montreal Convention to passenger injury claims against airlines?”
Casey surfaces rulings examining the two-tier liability system, accident definitions, damage limitations, and jurisdictional rules under the Montreal Convention.
3
Baggage Loss & Cargo Damage
Airlines have limited liability for lost, delayed, or damaged baggage under international conventions. Passengers and shippers must navigate strict time limits for reporting damage and filing claims.
Prompt:
“What cases addressed airline liability for lost or damaged baggage under the Montreal Convention?”
Casey returns decisions analyzing liability limits for checked baggage, notice requirements, special declarations of value, and the scope of airline cargo liability.
4
Aviation Accident Investigation & Safety
When aviation accidents occur, investigations by the Transportation Safety Board and enforcement by Transport Canada follow strict procedures. Findings can affect civil liability and regulatory compliance.
Prompt:
“How have TSB findings been used in civil litigation arising from aviation accidents?”
Casey retrieves rulings analyzing the admissibility of TSB reports, privilege protections, expert evidence standards, and causation determinations in aviation accident cases.
5
Licensing & Regulatory Compliance
Pilots, airlines, and aviation maintenance organizations must maintain licences and comply with Canadian Aviation Regulations. Suspension or revocation of a licence can end a career or ground an airline.
Prompt:
“What cases involved licence suspension or revocation for pilots or aviation operators?”
Casey surfaces decisions examining grounds for licence action, procedural fairness in suspension hearings, the role of medical fitness, and appeals of Transport Canada decisions.
6
Airport Operations & Noise Disputes
Airports generate noise and environmental impacts that affect surrounding communities. Disputes involve noise abatement procedures, land use restrictions, and liability for property value diminishment.
Prompt:
“What cases addressed noise complaints or property devaluation claims against airports?”
Casey returns rulings analyzing nuisance claims against airport authorities, statutory immunity defences, noise management obligations, and compensation for affected property owners.
