Just for Laughs founder Gilbert Rozon will be allowed to appeal a court ruling that limits the questions his defence can ask in his civil trial for sexual assault, Quebec’s highest court has ruled.

Court of Appeal Justice Martin Vauclair did not order the trial suspended, but he wrote in a short judgment on Tuesday that a final decision in the lawsuit would not be possible until the appeal is settled.
