REASONS FOR ORDER AND ORDER
BLAIS J.
[1] This is a motion by the applicant for an adjournment of the proceedings.
[2] The applicant submits that the Supreme Court decisions in Al Sagban and Chieu v. Canada [1998] F.C.J. No 1776, (FED. C.A.) which are pending, need to be rendered prior to disposition by this Court.
[3] The respondent suggests that the Immigration Appeal Division (I.A.D.) decision is consistent with the current case law as it stands now.
[4] The applicant fails to substantiate why this Court should adjourn the case.
[5] I am not convinced that there are sufficient reasons for this Court to depart from its practice of ensuring the good administration of justice in setting hearing dates in advance.
[6] For these reasons, the motion for adjournment is dismissed.
