DECISION

Adjudicator: Douglas Sanderson

Date: January 18, 2011

Citation: 2011 HRTO 130

Indexed as: Wood v. T Café

1The applicant filed an Application under s. 34 of the Human Rights Code, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.19, as amended, (the “Code”), on September 24, 2010. The Tribunal has attempted to deliver the Application to the respondents at the address provided by the applicant. The Notice of Application sent to respondents was returned marked “RETURN TO SENDER”.

2The Tribunal relies on applicants to provide a correct address for respondents named in their applications. See, for example, Guild v. Kyle-Jansen, 2008 HRTO 347. Rule 6.6(b) provides that the Tribunal will not deal with an application in respect of a respondent who cannot be contacted at the contact information provided by the applicant.

3On November 19, 2010, the Tribunal wrote to the applicant to inform her that it was unable to proceed with her Application until she provided further contact information for the respondents or explained why she believed the contact information she had provided was in fact current, complete and accurate. The Tribunal warned the applicant that failure to provide the requested information could result in the dismissal of the Application.

4The applicant has not responded to the Tribunal’s correspondence. In the circumstances, the applicant is deemed to have abandoned the Application and the Application is dismissed.
