The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) brought a motion to stay a 16-day hearing before the Assessment Review Board pending an application for judicial review.
MPAC argued the Board improperly intervened by allowing the complainants to re-open their case.
The Divisional Court dismissed the motion, finding that MPAC failed to raise a serious argument that exceptional circumstances justified interlocutory judicial review before the administrative process concluded.
The court also found no irreparable harm and that the balance of convenience favoured proceeding with the scheduled hearing.
