Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada v. Bremsak

The appeal is dismissed because the Institute failed to establish a lawful excuse for failing to comply with the PSLRB reinstatement order from the date it was made (August 26, 2009); Warman establishes that tribunal orders enforceable in Federal Court may be the subject of contempt for breaches occurring from the date of the tribunal order, and neither the Oct 20, 2009 membership suspension nor pending stay proceedings excused non-compliance.

Family law C34029

McLarty v. Director, Family Responsiblity Office

The motions judge lacked jurisdiction under s.35(3) to make a refraining order outside the 30‑day First Notice period; however because the Director failed to file evidence proving service of the First Notice when service was disputed, the suspension of Mr. McLarty's driver's licence could not stand and the Director was ordered to direct reinstatement; the motions judge erred in ordering withdrawal of any federal licence denial application because the federal notice under s.67 was properly served.

  • Support enforcement
  • Driver's licence suspension
  • Service of notice
  • Refraining order
  • Federal licence denial
