Motion for public interest standing dismissed as pending motion to strike must be determined first.
The self-represented applicant brought a motion for public interest standing and to consolidate his application for judicial review with a separate Superior Court application.
The respondents opposed the motion, noting they had a pending motion to strike the application for failing to disclose a cause of action.
The Divisional Court dismissed the applicant's motion, holding that the motion to strike must proceed first as it would determine whether there was a serious justiciable issue.
The court also found it lacked jurisdiction to consolidate the matters and awarded costs of $1,000 to each respondent.
