Motion for disclosure partially granted; only liability-related documents ordered disclosed due to bifurcated hearing.
The corporate respondents brought a motion seeking disclosure of documents and information from the complainants and the Ontario Human Rights Commission, or alternatively, an order striking the complaint.
The Board of Inquiry noted that the hearing on the merits had been bifurcated into liability and remedy phases.
Consequently, the Board ordered disclosure only of documents relating to the liability aspect of the proceedings at this juncture, specifically information concerning the diagnoses of four youths and details regarding the complainants' bankruptcies to establish their entitlement to any potential award.
