DECISION

Adjudicator: Naomi Overend Date: November 25, 2016 Citation: 2016 HRTO 1507 Indexed as: Taylor v. Kenex Coatings

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 May 25, 2016.

2On July 20, 2016 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 August 19, 2016. 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 has not responded to the NOID, or the follow-up email to him, dated September 20, 2016 (with a new deadline of October 20, 2016) 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.
