Judicial review of HRTO decision dismissed; tribunal reasonably found application was out of time.
The applicant sought judicial review of a Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario (HRTO) decision dismissing her discrimination application against her employer, union, and others.
The HRTO had dismissed the application against the employer due to delay, finding no good faith reason to extend the one-year time limit under s. 34 of the Human Rights Code, and dismissed the claims against the other respondents for lack of factual basis or jurisdiction.
The Divisional Court found no procedural unfairness in the HRTO proceedings and held that the HRTO's decisions were reasonable.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
The court granted summary judgment dismissing the plaintiffs' life insurance claims as time-barred and for failure to mitigate.
The plaintiffs, Donald Klees and Julie Kent, commenced an action against State Farm Insurance, Desjardins Insurance, and Keith G. Jupp, alleging breach of contract related to a life insurance policy and its conversion.
The defendants brought a motion for summary judgment.
The court dismissed the plaintiffs' claims, finding the 1992 and 1994 claims time-barred under the Limitations Act, R.S.O. 1990, and the 2018 claim lacking damages and demonstrating a failure to mitigate losses by rejecting a reasonable offer from Desjardins.
The motion for summary judgment was granted.
