REASONS
FOR ORDER
(Delivered
from the bench at Montréal
on
Tuesday, January 14, 1997)
HUGESSEN J.A.
It is
established that the applicant’s application record was served outside the time
set by Rule 1606(1)(b). In response to the respondent’s application to
dismiss, the applicant did not file an application for an extension of time.
Counsel for the applicant sought to make an oral application for such an
extension at the hearing, but in our view such an application cannot be
entertained where no affidavit has been filed explaining the reasons for the
delay and the chance that the application for judicial review will be
successful. That being the case, the application for judicial review must be
dismissed on the ground that it was brought improperly.
