DECISION
Adjudicator: Leslie Reaume
Indexed as: Farrell v. Grand & Toy Ltd.
1This is an Application filed under section 34 of Part IV of the Human Rights Code, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.19, as amended (the “Code”), alleging discrimination with respect to employment because of disability.
2On February 28, 2013, I issued an Interim Decision (2013 HRTO 351) dismissing certain allegations and permitting the applicant to proceed in relation to the remaining allegations. In that Interim Decision I gave the following direction:
I note that the applicant’s circumstances have changed significantly since this Application was filed. The applicant continues to work for the respondent. She is no longer supervised by EA. When she was asked to describe her current working conditions she described her new supervisor as “fantastic”. Given those circumstances and the fact that the majority of the applicant’s allegations have been dismissed, the applicant may not wish to pursue her remaining allegations against EA.
If the applicant wishes to pursue those allegations, she must provide full particulars, as described above, within 14 days of the date of this Interim Decision. The Tribunal will then issue further directions.
If the applicant does not wish to pursue the remaining allegations, she may simply let the 14-day time limit pass, after which, the Application will be dismissed as abandoned.
3The applicant has not filed any further particulars and the 14 day time period has now passed.
4Accordingly, the Application is dismissed as abandoned.
Dated at Toronto, this 6th day of June, 2013.
