The responding party requested an adjournment on the morning of the hearing via a faxed medical note for its representative.
The applicants opposed the adjournment.
The Board noted its practice of not granting adjournments except on consent or in extenuating circumstances, and criticized the late notice and the vague medical note.
However, given the history of the proceedings, the Board reluctantly granted the adjournment, making the new dates peremptory and ordering the responding party to reimburse the applicants for their share of the section 126(4) expenses.
