REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

(Delivered from the Bench at Toronto, Ontario, on January 23, 2008)

[1]               This is a borderline case. On the particulars facts of the case, we cannot conclude, on a standard of reasonableness, that the Umpire erred in refusing to interfere with the decision of the Board of Referees which found that the respondent had shown good cause for delaying her application for benefits.

 

[2]               Accordingly, the Attorney General’s judicial review application will be dismissed with costs.
