The court granted multiple public interest groups intervenor status with enhanced rights and exempted the action from mandatory mediation.
This endorsement addresses multiple motions for intervention by various public interest groups and a motion by the plaintiff for exemption from mandatory mediation and a blanket order regarding disclosure.
The court granted intervention status as "friends of the court" to the CCPI Coalition, Amnesty International, ESCR-Net, Colour of Poverty Coalition, and Migrant Worker Coalition, with varying rights including access to productions and attendance at discovery for some.
The court also granted the plaintiff's request to exempt the matter from mandatory mediation, citing the public interest nature and previous attempts at resolution.
The plaintiff's request for a blanket disclosure order to third parties was adjourned.
All intervenors were relieved from liability for costs.
