Human rights application dismissed for delay as applicant failed to show good faith.
The applicant filed a human rights application alleging discrimination in employment more than a year after the last alleged incident.
The Tribunal held a preliminary hearing to determine if the delay was incurred in good faith under section 34(2) of the Human Rights Code.
The applicant argued the delay was caused by his former counsel failing to file the complaint and withholding documents.
The Tribunal found the applicant did not act with due diligence in obtaining the documents or pursuing the claim after his retainer ended in 2006.
The application was dismissed as the delay was not incurred in good faith.
