The applicant sought judicial review of a decision by the Social Security Tribunal Appeal Division (SST-AD) denying an extension of time to apply for leave to appeal.
The SST-AD had found that the application for leave was filed more than one year after the General Division's decision was communicated, barring the appeal under subsection 57(2) of the Department of Employment and Social Development Act.
The Federal Court found no error in the SST-AD's factual findings or its conclusion that the legislation provided no discretion to extend the time limit.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
