WILTON-SIEGEL J. (oRALLY)
[1] The applicant seeks an adjournment of this judicial review application pending receipt of a decision of the Ontario Energy Board (“OEB”) of its reconsideration of an earlier decision regarding the applicant’s failure to sign an assignment document required by Integrated Grain Processors’ Co-operative Inc. (“IGPC”).
[2] The Ontario Energy Board decision in the present review application is based on two general issues: (i) the financial status of the applicant and (ii) service issues relating to the applicant, of which the IGPC assignment issue is a major element.
[3] In these circumstances, we consider an adjournment to be appropriate. The outcome of the OEB reconsideration could have a significant impact on this judicial review application. In addition, if the OEB reconsideration is in favour of the applicant, it could have an impact on the OEB’s own view of the decision that is the subject of this review application.
A.C.J.S.C. CUNNINGHAM
COSTS
[4] This appeal is adjourned to a date to be fixed by the Registrar. Costs to the Town of Aylmer and IGPC fixed at $600.00 each.
