DECISION

Adjudicator: Mary Truemner Date: December 7, 2017 Citation: 2017 HRTO 1635 Indexed as: Clarke v. Social Justice Tribunals Ontario

1The applicant filed an Application under s. 34 of the Human Rights Code, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.19, as amended, on July 24, 2017.

2On October 5, 2017, the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario 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 4, 2017. The NOID advised the applicant that failure to respond to the NOID by November 4, 2017 may be considered an abandonment of the Application and it might be dismissed for that reason.

3The applicant has not responded to the NOID 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.
