                     (Delivered from the bench at Montréal, Quebec, on March 15, 2004)

PELLETIERJ.A.

[1]                It is our opinion that there was no evidence in the record which could show that the falsification of the files was an involuntary act.

[2]                It follows that the Umpire did not err in law in determining that the Board of Referee's decision was unreasonable.


[3]                The application for judicial review will be dismissed. In the circumstances, there is no reason to award costs.
