What is the test for establishing a negligent misrepresentation?

The defendants further submit judicial economy will not be achieved as the common issues are negligible in relation to the individual issues. The defendants submit that in order to establish a negligent misrepresentation following Queen v.

As a result, the defendants submit that discoveries are required and whether each member reasonably relied on the alleged negligent misrepresentation or the omissions will be an individual issue to be determined.
