Request for reconsideration denied; original dismissal for no reasonable prospect of success upheld.

The applicant sought reconsideration of a decision dismissing his human rights application against the respondent university for having no reasonable prospect of success.

The applicant alleged the university failed to accommodate his post-concussion syndrome during a comprehensive exam.

The Tribunal denied the request for reconsideration, finding that the original adjudicator did not depart from established jurisprudence when she concluded the applicant failed to provide sufficient medical evidence linking the adverse impact he experienced to his disability.

Human rights application regarding mandatory retirement found timely; time limit runs from actual retirement date.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging age discrimination due to the respondent's mandatory retirement policy.

The respondent employer requested that the applicant's union, the Durham Regional Police Association, be added as a respondent.

The applicant and the union opposed this request.

The Tribunal denied the request to add the union as a respondent, finding no allegations of Code violations against the union and noting the applicant's opposition.

However, the Tribunal granted the union's request for intervenor status, recognizing its interest in the accommodation issues raised.

Request for preliminary ruling on employment status denied for lack of jurisdiction over general labour relations.

The applicant filed a Request for Order During Proceedings seeking a preliminary ruling on his employment status with the respondent, arguing he remained an employee despite a 2004 severance agreement.

The Tribunal directed that the matter proceed to a summary hearing to address the core allegations of age discrimination in hiring and investigation failures.

Request to reactivate deferred human rights application denied to avoid inconsistent decisions with concurrent grievance arbitration.

The applicant filed a second request to reactivate her human rights application, which had been deferred pending the outcome of a concurrent union grievance.

The applicant sought reactivation because the arbitration hearing dates were delayed.

The respondents opposed the request, noting that the grievance was in abeyance pending settlement discussions.

The Tribunal denied the request, finding that proceeding with the application could lead to inconsistent decisions on the facts and legal issues raised in both proceedings.

The application remains deferred pending the conclusion of the arbitral process.

The Tribunal granted the amendment on consent.

The Tribunal deferred the witness scheduling request, noting that the applicant's testimony and cross-examination must be completed before her health care providers testify.

Finally, the Tribunal ordered the respondent to conduct another search for the arguably relevant e-mail and produce it or detail its search efforts.

Human rights application alleging age discrimination in sports funding and reprisal dismissed.

The applicant filed a human rights application on behalf of her son, alleging that Squash Ontario discriminated against him on the basis of age by setting an 'under age 22' limit for the Quest for Gold provincial funding program.

The applicant also alleged that Squash Ontario reprised against her son by requiring him to sign a liability waiver to renew his membership and by assigning him a lower ranking after his membership lapsed.

The Tribunal dismissed the application, finding that the age limit did not perpetuate prejudice or stereotyping and was reasonably connected to the program's focus on junior athletes.

The Tribunal also found no evidence of retaliatory intent regarding the liability waiver or the ranking process.

The Tribunal held that the documents were arguably relevant to the proceeding and ordered their production, subject to the redaction of any information that would identify patients.

The Tribunal also addressed a request by the respondents for the production of materials from the applicant and a co-respondent, issuing directions for the filing of witness statements and notes by a specified deadline.

HRTOHuman Rights Tribunal of OntarioMar 16, 2015

Reconsideration request dismissed as complainant failed to meet Rule 102 criteria and establish new evidence.

The complainant sought reconsideration of a previous Tribunal decision dismissing her claim for a special diet allowance related to unintended weight loss from Congenital Heart Disease.

She argued that new evidence showed the respondent's expert was not an expert in Adult Congenital Heart Disease.

The Tribunal dismissed the request, finding that the complainant failed to meet the criteria for reconsideration under Rule 102, as the new evidence could have been obtained earlier and the original decision found she had not made out a prima facie case even without the respondent's expert evidence.

The respondent in a human rights application alleging family status discrimination and reprisal brought a request for the production of documents.

The Tribunal ordered the applicant to produce documents detailing her efforts to find new employment and any subsequent employment secured, as these were arguably relevant to her duty to mitigate lost wages.

The Tribunal also ordered the production of documents confirming her husband's medical appointments, as this was relevant to her claim that she required time off to accompany him.

The Tribunal declined to order the production of the applicant's own medical documents, as she had not claimed discrimination based on disability.

Tribunal defers human rights application pending conclusion of parallel wrongful dismissal civil claim.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination based on citizenship after being removed from a project and replaced with an American employee.

The respondent requested that the application be dismissed under s. 34(11) of the Human Rights Code because the applicant had commenced a civil action for wrongful dismissal and breach of contract.

The Tribunal denied the request to dismiss, finding that the civil claim did not seek a remedy for a Code infringement.

However, the Tribunal granted the respondent's alternative request to defer the application pending the conclusion of the civil claim due to significant factual overlap and the risk of inconsistent findings.

Human rights complaint regarding special diet allowance for fibromyalgia dismissed for no reasonable prospect of success.

The complainant filed a human rights complaint alleging that the Special Diet Allowance under Ontario's social assistance system discriminates against him by failing to fund an allowance for his fibromyalgia.

The Tribunal held a summary hearing to determine if the complaint had a reasonable prospect of success.

Applying the four-part test from Ball v. Ontario, the Tribunal found that the complainant could not establish that there is a general recognition in the Ontario medical community that modifications to a regular healthy diet should be made for fibromyalgia.

The complaint was dismissed as having no reasonable prospect of success.

The complainant passed away, and correspondence sent to her last known address was returned.

As no representative of the complainant's estate contacted the Tribunal, the complaint was dismissed as abandoned.

Human rights application dismissed as untimely; ignorance of the law does not excuse delay.

The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination on the basis of disability, claiming he was denied a full pension due to a work-related injury.

The respondent requested the application be dismissed as untimely.

The Tribunal found that the applicant was aware of the facts giving rise to his claim more than a year before filing the application.

As a lack of knowledge of the law does not constitute a good faith reason for delay under section 34(2) of the Human Rights Code, the application was dismissed as untimely.

Motion to dismiss denied; WSIB decision on temporary injury did not address Code accommodation of permanent restrictions.

The respondent employer brought a request to dismiss the human rights application under s. 45.1 of the Human Rights Code, arguing that a WSIB Case Manager's decision had appropriately dealt with the substance of the application.

The Tribunal denied the request, finding that the WSIB decision only addressed the applicant's temporary compensable injury and did not deal with the central issue of whether the employer failed to accommodate the applicant's permanent restrictions and discriminatorily terminated his employment for frustration of contract.
