Decision
[1] This is a motion for Dismissal of the subject Grievance.
[2] The Grievance Settlement Board released a Decision in this matter on January 11,
2024. There, the Grievor, David Aris, was directed to provide Counsel for the Union
with the reason for his non-attendance at the hearing held on January 11, 2024.
[3] That Order was to be complied with by no later than February 2, 2024, failing which
“his grievance will be dismissed”.
[4] Counsel, Anjana Kashyap, confirmed on behalf of the Union that the Grievor had
been duly provided with a copy of the January 11th Decision in a timely manner.
[5] Further, she advised that neither she nor the Union had received any response
whatsoever from the Grievor up to February 6, 2024, the date of preparation of this
Decision.
[6] Mr. Mackenzie Anderson, Counsel for the Employer, confirmed the same on behalf
of his client. In the circumstances, he moved that the matter be dismissed.
[7] Although Ms. Kashyap requested an extension on behalf of the Grievor, there was
no legal basis for that request that had not been raised prior to release of the original
Decision of January 11th.
[8] In the circumstances, I hereby dismiss the Grievance of Mr. David Aris which is
referenced as GSB #2022-11967 and the Union #2023-0499-0005.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 7th day of February 2024.
“Joseph D. Carrier”
Joseph Carrier, Arbitrator
