Appeal of preliminary production order rejected; bias allegations deferred to separate statutory motion.
The appellant insurer appealed a preliminary pre-hearing order of an arbitrator regarding document production and alleged bias by the arbitrator.
The Director's Delegate rejected the appeal under Rule 51.2(c) of the Dispute Resolution Practice Code, finding it was from a preliminary order that did not finally decide the issues in dispute and lacked apparent strength.
The appellant was directed to proceed with a separate motion under subsection 282(12) of the Insurance Act to address the bias allegations.
