Motion to hold judicial review in abeyance pending a separate Charter challenge granted.
The applicant brought a motion to hold her judicial review in abeyance pending the determination of a Charter challenge in the separate matter of Gnanapragasam.
The applicant had her permanent residence status revoked after the RPD granted the Minister's application to cease her refugee protection.
The respondent argued the motion should be dismissed because the test for a stay under paragraph 50(1)(b) of the Federal Courts Act was not met.
The Court found it was in the interest of justice to grant the applicant's request, following the reasoning in a similar case (Habib), and ordered the matter to be specially managed.
