Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board, Leanne Sneddon
John Moffat and Tim Pieprazk
Respondents
INTERIM DECISION
Adjudicator: David A. Wright
Indexed as: Leckie v. Hamilton Wentworth District School Board
1This Application was filed under s. 34 of the Human Rights Code, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.19, as amended (the “Code”) and alleges reprisals by the respondents. The allegations arise in the context of employment. In the Application, the applicant notes that he is represented by a union, but has written “Do not send to union” above this information.
2The allegations and remedies requested may affect the interests of the union as the representative of the employees in the bargaining unit. The union is, therefore, an affected party entitled to notice of this proceeding.
3If the applicant wishes to pursue this Application, the Tribunal will provide the union with a copy of the Application and an opportunity to ask to intervene. The Tribunal will wait until April 3, 2009 before sending notice to the union. That way, should the applicant prefer to withdraw the Application rather than having notice given, he will have the opportunity to do so.
4I am not seized of this matter.
Dated at Toronto, this 27th day of March, 2009.
“Signed By”
David A. Wright
