Appeal from ODSP denial dismissed; Tribunal did not err in rejecting new medical evidence.
The appellant appealed a decision of the Social Benefits Tribunal finding he did not meet the definition of a person with a disability under the Ontario Disability Support Program Act.
The appellant argued the Tribunal erred in law by misapprehending new medical evidence filed before the hearing.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal, finding the Tribunal correctly weighed the new evidence, determining it was either inconsistent with earlier reports or reflected a deterioration in condition after the Director's decision.
Judicial review dismissed because applicants failed to exhaust internal appeal and review mechanisms.
The applicants sought judicial review of a decision by the Ontario Rental Housing Tribunal finding that the Tenant Protection Act applied to a trailer park site rented by the respondent.
The Divisional Court dismissed the application, holding that the applicants failed to exhaust their internal remedies, including a statutory right of appeal on a question of law and a right to request a review by the Tribunal.
The Court also found no error of law on the face of the record, as the Tribunal had jurisdiction to determine whether the Act applied.
