Tribunal permits applicant to call treating physician as expert witness and orders partial production of medical records.
In a human rights application alleging discrimination based on disability, the respondent school board requested an order to exclude the applicant's treating physician from testifying or, alternatively, to compel production of his medical records and records from other community agencies.
The Tribunal permitted the applicant to call the physician as an expert witness, ordered the production of the physician's records for a specified timeframe, and scheduled a teleconference to hear oral submissions regarding the production of records from other agencies.
