The applicant applied for a school purposes bus licence.
The Ministry of Transportation deferred the decision until the applicant's outstanding criminal charges were resolved.
The applicant sought judicial review to overturn the deferral or compel a decision.
The Divisional Court found the application was not premature but held that the Minister's decision to defer was reasonable given the safety concerns arising from the outstanding charges, which included possession of a switchblade and possession of controlled drugs for the purpose of trafficking.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
