Liquor licence transfer refused due to applicant's criminal history, lack of candour, and unauthorized alcohol sales.

The appellant appealed a Notice of Proposal by the Registrar to refuse the transfer of a liquor licence for a restaurant.

The refusal was based on the past and present conduct of the appellant's sole officer and director, which included a dated criminal record, a recent conviction for driving without a licence, lack of candour during the application process, and selling alcohol after the transfer was refused.

The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the officer's conduct afforded reasonable grounds for belief that the business would not be carried on in accordance with the law and with integrity and honesty.

The Tribunal directed the Registrar to carry out the proposal to refuse the transfer.

OLATOntario Licence Appeal TribunalApr 7, 2021

Vehicle impoundment upheld; owner failed to exercise due diligence in verifying driver's licence status.

The appellant appealed the 45-day impoundment of his motor vehicle under the Highway Traffic Act, which occurred after his son was caught driving the vehicle with a suspended licence.

The appellant argued that the licence was not actually suspended and, alternatively, that he exercised due diligence in attempting to determine its status.

The Licence Appeal Tribunal dismissed the appeal, finding that the Ministry's records confirmed the suspension and that the appellant failed to exercise due diligence by relying solely on his son's assurances despite a history of driving while disqualified.

Vehicle impoundment appeal dismissed; loss of part-time babysitting income did not constitute exceptional hardship.

The appellant appealed the 45-day impoundment of her motor vehicle under the Highway Traffic Act, arguing exceptional hardship.

The vehicle was impounded after the appellant's friend was caught driving it with a suspended licence.

The Tribunal found that while the appellant demonstrated no alternative transportation was available and she would lose some babysitting income, she failed to prove the financial loss would be significant and lasting.

The appeal was dismissed and the impoundment confirmed.

Driver's licence suspension confirmed due to appellant's schizophrenia and history of medication non-compliance.

The appellant appealed the Registrar of Motor Vehicles' decision to suspend her driver's licence for medical reasons.

The Registrar suspended the licence after receiving reports from treating psychiatrists that the appellant suffers from schizophrenia or other psychotic disorder.

The Tribunal found that the medical evidence supported the diagnosis and that the appellant's condition, which included delusions and a history of medication non-compliance, was likely to significantly interfere with her ability to drive safely.

The appeal was dismissed and the licence suspension was confirmed.
