The applicant filed a human rights application alleging employment discrimination based on marital status, while also pursuing a civil action for improper termination.
The respondent sought to dismiss the application under s. 34(11) of the Human Rights Code or defer it pending the civil action.
The Tribunal found the application was not barred because the civil action did not seek a Code remedy.
However, the Tribunal deferred the application to avoid concurrent proceedings on similar facts and issues.
A request to amend the application was deemed unnecessary.
