Montréal, Quebec, November 4, 2002
Before: Richard Morneau, Prothonotary
BETWEEN:
JEAN-EDOUARD CONILLE
Plaintiff
and
NATIONAL PAROLE BOARD
Defendant
REASONS FOR ORDER AND ORDER
[1] There are three parts to this motion, and they must be decided as follows based on reading the written submissions of the parties.
[2] The application to substitute the names is granted.
[3] On the plaintiff's application to file an amended record, it will suffice, without the need to file an amended record, that the plaintiff's existing record be deemed to include the following allegation: [TRANSLATION] "Since the application for judicial review was filed in the case at bar, the National Parole Board has finally made a decision on the pardon application filed by the plaintiff on April 29, 1999". Any other aspect of this part of the motion is dismissed.
[4] The plaintiff's application to join the case at bar to case T-258-02 must be denied. The parties were in complete disagreement on this aspect of the motion. There did not appear to be any consensus on the actual parameters of the two cases, and especially of the case at bar. Further, the case at bar is still subject to an order by a judge of this Court dated March 14, 2002, which directed that the hearing on the merits, to take place on March 20, 2002, be suspended sine die. Conversely, case T-258-02 was recently the subject of a hearing application under Rule 314. These two cases appear, at the defendant's own request, to have taken a different route and it does not appear to this Court that joining them would simplify and assist the administration of justice in general.
[5] Any other aspect of the motion at bar, and any other aspect raised by the parties in their written submissions, is otherwise dismissed.
[6] As to costs, it will suffice that none are awarded at present.
[7] Without wishing to attach blame, the Court urges the plaintiff to strictly limit the attacks which might be made personally against counsel for the Attorney General of Canada and to limit the interlocutory motions to what must absolutely be decided at this stage.
[8] A copy of these reasons for order and this order will also be entered in case T-258-02.
