Appeal from associate judge's order striking an application for judicial review dismissed.
The applicant appealed a Federal Court associate judge's order striking her application for judicial review of a Canada Revenue Agency decision regarding Canada Recovery Benefit (CRB) claims.
The associate judge had struck the application because it relied entirely on new evidence not before the original decision-maker.
The Federal Court dismissed the appeal, holding that the associate judge made no palpable and overriding error.
The Court reaffirmed that new evidence is generally inadmissible on judicial review and that a self-represented litigant must still adhere to the Rules.
