Bell Mobility Inc. Respondent

DECISION

Adjudicator: Brian Eyolfson Date: May 15, 2013 Citation: 2013 HRTO 819 Indexed as: Godden v. Bell Mobility Inc.

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 February 24, 2012.

2By Interim Decision 2012 HRTO 937, dated May 9, 2012, the Application was deferred pending a jurisdictional determination by the Canadian Human Rights Commission relating to the same issues.

3On February 4, 2013 the Tribunal wrote to the applicant by regular mail, and on March 15, 2013 the Tribunal wrote to the applicant by both regular mail and e-mail at the addresses the applicant provided in the Application. The applicant was asked to inform the Registrar, initially by March 6 and then by April 2, 2013, whether the other process remained ongoing and, if possible, to indicate when that process was expected to be completed. The Tribunal’s correspondence went on to warn the applicant that failure to provide the requested information might result in the Tribunal dismissing the Application as abandoned.

4The applicant has not responded to the Tribunal’s correspondence, nor has the correspondence been returned as undeliverable.

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