DECISION

Adjudicator: David Muir

Date: March 20, 2015

Citation: 2015 HRTO 355

Indexed as: Bays v. National Bank of Canada

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 January 15, 2015.

2On February 3, 2015 the Tribunal issued a Notice of Intent to Dismiss the Application (“NOID”) because it appeared that the Applicant may be outside of the Tribunal’s jurisdiction to decide. The applicant was directed to provide her written submissions in response to the NOID before March 5, 2015. The applicant was further advised that if she did not provide written submissions by the required time the Tribunal may make its decision based only on the information in the Application or may consider the failure to respond as an abandonment of the Application and dismiss it for that reason.

3There is no indication that the NOID was not received.

4The applicant did not respond to the NOID and the time for doing so has passed.

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

6The Application is dismissed.
