Insurer's appeal dismissed; insured's withdrawal of arbitration application was not an abuse of process.
The insurer appealed an arbitration order that allowed the insured to withdraw his application for arbitration shortly before the hearing date without ordering him to pay an assessment for abuse of process.
The Director's Delegate dismissed the appeal, finding that the arbitrator properly exercised his discretion in allowing the withdrawal and correctly concluded that the insured's conduct did not amount to an abuse of process.
