DECISION
Adjudicator: David Muir Date: February 5, 2013 Citation: 2013 HRTO 202 Indexed as: Bentley v. York Regional Police
Introduction
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 October 17, 2012.
2On December 11, 2012, the Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss the Application (“NOID”) on the basis that the Application appears to be outside the Tribunal’s power to decide. The applicant was directed to respond to the issues raised in the NOID by no later than January 10, 2013. The NOID advised the applicant that failure to respond to the NOID might be considered an abandonment of the Application and it might be dismissed for that reason.
3The applicant has not responded to the NOID and the time for doing so has now passed.
4In the circumstances, the applicant is deemed to have abandoned the Application.
5The Application is dismissed.
Dated at Toronto, this 5th day of February, 2013.
