A Trail woman is suing her adult children for parental support, the CBC reported early Wednesday.

Shirley Anderson won the right to have her case heard in B.C. Supreme Court, after three of her children applied to have the matter dismissed.

Justice William Ehrcke ruled Tuesday Anderson’s case for parental support can be heard, but if she continues to ignore court orders that right will disappear.

The justice gave the 73-year-old Trail resident one last chance to produce financial statements by Dec. 2 and then present herself to her lawyers for discovery hearings by the end of January.
