The applicant sought judicial review of the Ontario Judicial Council's disposition of his complaint against a Small Claims Court judge.
The complaint took 584 days to resolve, which the applicant argued was an unreasonable delay.
The Divisional Court found that while the applicant had standing to bring the application, the OJC's procedure and disposition were reasonable and mandated by statute.
The application was dismissed, but costs were awarded to the unsuccessful applicant due to the OJC's delay and misleading correspondence regarding the availability of judicial review.
