The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination, harassment, and reprisal in her employment.
A few days prior, she filed a civil action in the Superior Court of Justice based on the same factual foundation.
The respondents requested dismissal of the application under s. 34(11) of the Human Rights Code, which prevents duplication of proceedings.
The Tribunal found that the civil action and the human rights application relied on the same facts and sought remedies for the same alleged conduct.
Consequently, the Tribunal dismissed the application to prevent duplicative litigation.
