Human rights application against hospital dismissed for delay as applicant failed to establish good faith.
The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination based on disability after his driver's license was suspended following a hospital admission.
The application was filed 18 months after the incident, six months past the one-year limitation period under the Human Rights Code.
The respondent hospital requested the application be dismissed for delay.
The Tribunal found that the applicant had reason to make inquiries about his rights but failed to do so, and therefore the delay was not incurred in good faith.
The application against the hospital was dismissed.
