The moving parties brought a motion to adjourn the hearing of a judicial review application scheduled for February 2016.
The moving parties argued that their counsel was unavailable, they were not consulted on the date, and there was insufficient time to prepare a proper response, including conducting cross-examinations.
The court applied the factors for granting an adjournment and found that proceeding in February would deny the moving parties the opportunity to fairly make out their case.
The motion was granted and the hearing was adjourned to October 2016.
