The applicants sought urgent judicial review of an Ontario Securities Commission decision denying their request to adjourn a hearing.
The adjournment was requested after the applicants' expert lost her work product due to a computer error.
The Divisional Court dismissed the application as premature, applying the general rule that procedural decisions of administrative tribunals should not be reviewed prior to the final determination of the proceeding unless there is a prospect of real unfairness amounting to a denial of natural justice.
The Court found the Commission's conclusion that the expert could be adequately prepared was reasonable.
