The respondents brought a motion to dismiss or stay the human rights complaints, alleging that the Commission's investigation was flawed, biased, and inadequate.

Relying on established jurisprudence, the Tribunal found that even a flawed investigation does not deprive it of the ability to conduct a hearing unless it results in an abuse of process, and there was no evidence that the respondents were prevented from defending the case.
