What kind of jurisdiction does a human rights adjudicator have in respect of a dispute?
Manitoba, Canada
The following excerpt is from Mousseau v Southern Health, 2019 MBHR 2 (CanLII):
[10] Accordingly, there are three kinds of jurisdiction that a human rights adjudicator might have in respect of any dispute: the adjudicator’s jurisdiction might be concurrent with that of another administrative decision-maker; the jurisdiction might overlap the jurisdiction of another administrative decision-maker; or, a human rights adjudicator might have no jurisdiction, because another administrative decision-maker has exclusive jurisdiction over the dispute: Weber v. Ontario Hydro, 1995 CanLII 108 (SCC), [1995] 2 SCR 929 at para. 39, 47, and 50.
