The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination on the basis of disability following the termination of her contract as an American Sign Language consultant.
The respondents requested early dismissal of the application on the basis that it was filed beyond the one-year time limit under section 34 of the Human Rights Code.
The Tribunal found that the application was filed out of time and that the applicant's subsequent efforts to be reinstated did not constitute a series of incidents.
The Tribunal further held that the applicant failed to establish that the delay was incurred in good faith, as she provided insufficient detail and no medical evidence to explain the delay.
The application was dismissed.
