The Applicant,
Anna Maida
Self-Represented
The Respondent,
Halton Standard Condominium Corporation No. 717
Represented by Erik Savas, Counsel
DISMISSAL ORDER
[1] The Applicant filed an application with the Condominium Authority Tribunal (CAT). The case proceeded to Stage 2 - Mediation on December 16, 2022.
[2] Under Rule 34.3 of the CAT’s Rules of Practice, the CAT can close a case in Stage 2 - Mediation if the Applicant does not move their case to Stage 3 after having the opportunity to do so for more than 15 days.
[3] The Applicant in this case was given the opportunity to move the case to Stage 3 on February 8, 2023. The Applicant did not respond to the message I posted in the CAT-ODR system where I granted her permission to move this matter to Stage 3. I note, when I granted the Applicant permission to move this matter to Stage 3, I informed her that she had 15 days to pay the fee required to move the matter forward, and if she did not pay the fee within the prescribed time, her matter would be dismissed.
[4] The Applicant did not acknowledge my granting her permission to move this matter to Stage 3. As such, on February 13, 2023, a Tribunal staff member reached out to the Applicant. The staff member spoke with the Applicant and reminded her of the deadline. The Applicant advised the staff member that she would respond to my messages in the CAT-ODR system as soon as possible. As of the date of this order, the Applicant has not responded to my messages in the CAT-ODR system, and she has not paid the fee required to move this matter to Stage 3.
[5] Given the Applicant did not opt to pay the fee required to move this matter to Stage 3 by the deadline of February 23, 2023, I am ordering this case be dismissed.
ORDER
[6] The Tribunal orders that:
1. This case is closed in Stage 2 - Mediation under Rule 34.3 of the CAT’s Rules of Practice.
2. Any documents and messages that have been shared for this Case in Stage 1 - Negotiation and / or Stage 2 - Mediation are private and confidential. That means that the Users cannot share, or tell anyone about, messages or documents they received from other Users during these stages without the permission of the other User.
3. The Users may share a copy of any document they received during the course of this case if required by law, such as to a government organization or a court.
