Request to amend human rights application denied due to unexplained delay and prejudice to respondents.
The applicant sought to amend his human rights application to add new allegations of discrimination shortly before the scheduled hearing.
The Tribunal denied the request to amend, finding that the applicant had the necessary information to raise the allegations much earlier and that allowing the amendment at this late stage would cause significant prejudice to the respondents.
The Tribunal also issued orders regarding hearing management, including bifurcating the hearing into liability and remedy phases, setting time estimates for witness testimony, and permitting the applicant to transcribe the hearing at his own expense.
