Citation: 2012 HRTO 804

Indexed as: Hinz v. Hairloft

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 July 11, 2011.

2On January 20, 2012 the Tribunal issued a Notice of Confirmation of Hearing, scheduling the hearing for August 20 and 21, 2012. The applicant was directed to disclose arguably relevant documents and file with the Tribunal a statement of delivery by February 10, 2012. The applicant did not respond to this Notice.

3The Tribunal issued a Case Assessment Direction (“CAD”) on March 28, 2012 directing the applicant to update her contact information with the Tribunal and the respondent and to provide the respondent with her disclosure, as required by Rule 16.1. In addition, the CAD directed the applicant to respond to the Request for an Order brought by the respondent. The CAD advised the applicant that failure to comply with the directions by April 10, 2012 could result in the Tribunal dismissing her Application as abandoned.

4A copy of the CAD was sent to the applicant by Email and Regular Mail. The mail correspondence has been returned to the Tribunal, marked as “Moved/Unknown”. The Email correspondence has not been returned to the Tribunal. The applicant has not responded to the CAD and the time for doing so has now passed.

5In the circumstances, the applicant is deemed to have abandoned the Application.

6The Application is dismissed.
