(Delivered

2008)
LINDEN J.A.
[1]
Despite
the excellent argument of counsel for the Crown, in light of the vagueness of
the relevant legislative provisions and the lack of clarity in the
jurisprudence on the issue, we have not been persuaded that the Umpire made any
error that would warrant our intervention.
This application will be dismissed.
