Respondent
Motion dealt with in writing without appearance of parties
Order delivered at Ottawa, Ontario, on June 9, 2003
REASONS FOR ORDER BY: NADON J.A.
Date: 20030609
Docket: A-78-03
Citation: 2003 FCA 260
Present: THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE NADON
BETWEEN:
R.R. ROBERTSON
Applicant
and
HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Respondent
REASONS FOR ORDER
[1] The applicant seeks an order appointing a prothonotary, pursuant to Rule 381(3)(c), to assist in the management of the proceedings. The applicant also seeks a stay of proceedings, pursuant to Rule 390, for a period not exceeding six months.
[2] In my view, the motion cannot be granted on the basis sought, since a stay of proceedings, pursuant to Rule 390, can only be granted by a case management judge or a prothonotary assigned under Rule 383(c).
[3] However, in view of the respondent's consent and the reasons for which the stay is sought, I will, exercising my powers under section 50(b) of the Federal Court Act, stay the proceedings until December 1, 2003.
