The respondent condominium owners brought a motion to adjourn the Condominium Authority Tribunal (CAT) proceedings pending the resolution of a parallel human rights application filed with the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario (HRTO).
The underlying dispute involved the condominium corporation's enforcement of pet rules against the respondent's service dog.
The CAT applied the factors for granting an adjournment and found that the CAT proceeding was already underway, the CAT had jurisdiction to consider Human Rights Code issues in the context of rule enforcement, and the condominium corporation would be prejudiced by the delay.
The motion for an adjournment was dismissed.
