DECISION

Adjudicator: David Muir
Date: June 9, 2015
Citation: 2015 HRTO 760
Indexed as: Farrow v. Nipissing Detoxification & Substance Abuse Program

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 April 1, 2015.

2On April 13, 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 May 14, 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.

3The NOID was sent to the applicant again by email on May 22, 2015 at which time the applicant was directed to provide her submission in response to the NOID by May 29, 2015.

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.
