A.V.de V. v. Intact Insurance Company (16-002061)

The claimant sought an adjournment of the LAT hearing after receipt of insurer addendums occurred two weeks before the hearing. Those addendums were completed late in the process because the claimant had himself served the insurer with s.25 reports just five weeks prior. Vice Chair Flude concluded that an adjournment was warranted to allow a full hearing on the merits. He also ordered both the claimant’s assessors and the insurer’s assessors to produce their entire files and records.
