HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioJan 23, 2009

Request to expedite denied; applicant ordered to provide submissions on Tribunal's jurisdiction over prior complaint.

The applicant filed an application alleging discrimination in employment on the basis of disability and requested that the proceedings be expedited.

The Tribunal denied the request to expedite, finding no urgent circumstances that would affect the fair and just resolution of the application.

The Tribunal deferred the jurisdictional issue and ordered the applicant to file submissions explaining why the application is not barred by s. 53(8).
