Summary

Case summaries are prepared by the Office of the Registrar of the Supreme Court of Canada (Law Branch). Please note that summaries are not provided to the Judges of the Court. They are placed on the Court file and website for information purposes only.

Administrative law – Police ethics committee – Immunity of administrative decision-maker – Prescription of action – Motion for leave to appeal dismissed – Whether Court of Appeal’s decision violates applicant’s right to be heard and right to make full answer and defence.

The applicant went before the Superior Court to contest the decision of the Comité de déontologie policière, which allegedly contained comments damaging to her reputation. The Superior Court concluded that the administrative decision-maker was immune and that the action was prescribed. The Court of Appeal refused to hear the appeal, a decision the applicant is challenging in this application for leave to appeal, relying on her right to be heard in court.
