CONDOMINIUM AUTHORITY TRIBUNAL
DATE: February 28, 2024
CASE: 2024-00027R & 2024-00101R
Citation: Cernova-Cerrato v. Simcoe Condominium Corporation No. 8, 2024 ONCAT 28
Order under Rule 4 of the Condominium Authority Tribunal’s Rules of Practice.
Member: Ian Darling, Chair
The Applicant,
Lenka Cernova-Cerrato
Self-Represented
The Respondent,
Simcoe Condominium Corporation No. 8
Represented by Sonja Hodis, Counsel
Submission Dates: February 15, 2024 to February 22, 2024
ORDER
[1] The Applicant made a motion to merge two records cases. The Tribunal sent notice of the motion to the Condominium Corporation’s email address rather than to the Respondent’s counsel. Consequently, the Respondent did not have an opportunity to respond, and the CAT made an order in absence of a response.
[2] Rule 4.1 of the Tribunal Rules establishes that the CAT may give directions or make Orders to provide a fair, focused and efficient process in each Case. Both cases are in Stage 1 – Negotiation. Both cases relate to records requests that were submitted within a short period of time. It would be most effective for the parties to consolidate all the issues in one case. The Tribunal orders the cases to be merged.
