Decision
CASE MANAGEMENT
[1] (a) There are two grievances before me. Despite good faith efforts
the parties were unable to mediate a resolution to the grievances.
Counsel to the Employer advises that he intends to bring a
preliminary motion seeking an order to remove Mr. Zamfir from
acting for OPSEU in these matters because he will likely be a
witness. The Employer shall by February 9, 2024 particularize its
request to remove Mr. Zamfir;
(b) OPSEU shall by March 1, 2024 provide its response to the request
for an order to remove Mr. Zamfir.
[2] This preliminary matter is scheduled to proceed to a hearing on March
28, 2024.
Dated at Toronto, Ontario this 18th day of January 2024.
