The Toronto Police Services Board applied for judicial review of an arbitration award that ordered compensation to a police officer whose promotion was deferred due to pending disciplinary charges that were later withdrawn.
The Divisional Court applied the reasonableness standard of review and found that the arbitrator's interpretation of the collective agreement, which balanced the employer's right to defer promotion with the officer's right to be made whole upon exoneration, was reasonable.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
