Stay of immediate license suspension granted with conditions pending full hearing on foaling location misrepresentation.
The licensees, a horse breeder and his company, sought a stay of an immediate suspension order issued by the Director of the Ontario Racing Commission.
The Director suspended the licenses based on allegations that the licensees misrepresented the foaling location of a horse to enter it in a restricted race.
The Commission considered whether it had the authority to overrule the Director's decision under section 23 of the Racing Commission Act, 2000 before a full hearing.
Applying the test for a stay, the Commission granted the stay with conditions, finding that the public interest would be protected pending a full hearing scheduled before the next racing season.
