Application for judicial review dismissed; HRTO reasonably found discrimination claim had no prospect of success.
The applicant sought judicial review of two Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario (HRTO) decisions that dismissed his discrimination application for having no reasonable prospect of success.
The applicant alleged his former employer failed to accommodate his workplace knee injury and terminated him.
The HRTO found the applicant had not provided medical evidence or communicated his availability for months, leading the employer to deem his employment abandoned.
The Divisional Court dismissed the application for judicial review, finding the HRTO's decisions were reasonable, intelligible, and justified based on the record.
The plaintiff's wrongful dismissal action was dismissed because her conduct constituted a clear resignation.
The plaintiff, Elizabeth Scull, brought an action for wrongful dismissal against Ensemble Travel Ltd., alleging termination without cause.
The defendant contended that Scull had resigned.
The summary trial focused on whether Scull was terminated or voluntarily resigned.
The court found that Scull's words and actions, including an ultimatum regarding her reporting structure or severance, clearly indicated an intention to resign.
Consequently, the court dismissed the plaintiff's claim for damages.
