DECISION

Adjudicator: Naomi Overend Date: January 16, 2015 Citation: 2015 HRTO 65 Indexed as: Porzuczek v. Keizer Investment Ltd.

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 September 22, 2014.

2On October 20, 2014, 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 November 19, 2014. The NOID advised the applicant that failure to respond to the NOID may be considered an abandonment of the Application and it might be dismissed for that reason.

3The applicant did not respond to the NOID and a follow-up letter was sent to the applicant via email on December 5, 2014, advising him that he must respond by December 15, 2014 or the Tribunal may dismiss his Application as abandoned. The applicant has not responded to the NOID or follow-up email 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.
