Decision

[1] On April 25, 2013, a panel of the board of referees (“the Board”) determined that the appeal of the Applicant from the previous determination of the Commission should be denied.  An application requesting leave to appeal to the Appeal Division was filed in due course.

[2] I have read and carefully considered the application of the Applicant. The Applicant has raised several arguments, each supported by extensive submissions and case law to the effect that the Board erred in its decision.

[3] The Applicant argues that the Board erred in its interpretation and application of subsection 30(3) of the Employment Insurance Regulations and the related jurisprudence, and also erred in law and fact by finding that the Applicant had knowingly made a false or misleading representation.

[4] In my view, these arguments raise an arguable case and if true could lead to the appeal being allowed. Therefore, these arguments have a reasonable chance of success and leave to appeal should be granted.

 You are being directed to the most recent version of the statute which may not be the version considered at the time of the judgment.
