Judicial review of First Nation electoral board's decision dismissing removal petition dismissed as reasonable.
The applicants sought judicial review of a decision by the Piikani Nation Removal Appeals Board dismissing a petition to remove a councillor over allegations of bribery and breach of piikanissini.
The Federal Court dismissed the application, holding that the Board's interpretation of piikanissini and its treatment of the evidence were reasonable.
The Court also found that the Board's adaptations to the hearing process did not breach procedural fairness.
