The respondents requested an adjournment of a human rights hearing scheduled for March 17-19, 2014, citing late receipt of the applicant's documents, their own failure to comply with pre-hearing obligations, and the unavailability of a witness and one of the personal respondents.
The Tribunal denied the request, finding that the respondents had ample notice of the hearing since July 2013 and failed to demonstrate extraordinary circumstances justifying an adjournment as required by the Tribunal's Practice Direction.
