Judicial review application regarding deferral of removal dismissed as moot.
The applicants, citizens of the Bahamas, sought judicial review of a decision refusing their request to defer their removal from Canada until the end of the school year.
The date for the requested deferral had passed by the time the application was scheduled to be heard.
The Federal Court found the application moot and declined to exercise its discretion to hear the case, noting no valid purpose would be served and the applicants could make a fresh request if rescheduled for removal.
Judicial review dismissed as the Social Security Tribunal lacks jurisdiction over provincial benefit deductions.
The self-represented applicant sought judicial review of a decision by the Social Security Tribunal - Appeal Division denying her leave to appeal.
She challenged the Province of Alberta's deduction of her Canada Pension Plan disability benefits from her Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped (AISH) benefits.
The Federal Court dismissed the application for judicial review, finding the Appeal Division reasonably concluded that the Tribunal lacks jurisdiction over decisions made by the provincial AISH program.
