Is it excessive or excessive for a complaint to be filed two or more years late?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Sayer v. Parkbridge Lifestyle Communities, 2019 BCHRT 206 (CanLII):
As discussed above, the one-year deadline for filing applies in this case and, as such, the portion of this complaint related to the street lamp incidents in 2015 was approximately two plus years late filed, which is excessive, and militates strongly against the public interest: Naziel-Wilson v. Providence Health Care and another, 2014 BHCRT 170, at para. 13.
