I HAVE A ONE SUGGESTION TO ALL OF US THAT TALK TO LAWYERS AND GIVE THEM SUGGESTION TO ASKED TO COURT TO SET ANY TIME FRAME FOR FINALISE OUR CASES. BECAUSE real victory is when we get some time frame from CIC without time frame that victory is waste of time. THE POINT IS THIS THAT NOW HOW MUCH MORE TIME ....ALREADY 8 YEARS SPOILED I THINK THAT YET NOT CLEAR UNLESS WE ALL HAVE GET MEDICALS...AND WIN THE CASE...WHEN THE CIC SEND US VISAS .... SO PLEASE TALK TO LAWYERS AND GIVE THEM SUGGESTION TO ASKED TO COURT TO SET ANY TIME FRAME FOR FINALISE OUR CASES.
Dear Umer ,

That was the purpose of my litigation. However, the Minister and Justice Barnes have make that virtually impossible. First, the Minister threw all the cases into play in March, not just the 1,000 whom I was representing. Second, Justice Barnes is refusing to rule on the motion I filed, asking him to enforce the agreement CIC and I had signed and filed with the Federal Court on February 3rd.

Regards,

Tim

Update from Tim:

1. Justice Rennie, who will be presiding over the hearing in January, allocated time to both sides to make their arguments and canvassed counsel as to which arguments they intended to raise and how long they expected to speak. For our group, he told me that I could only argue one case and had until Friday to say which one. I have not yet made that decision.

2. Justice Barnes cancelled the Tuesday hearing in view of what had been arranged at the Monday converence.

Hi....

I am new to this forum,

But, I have been a litigant from more than last 1 year.....

This are only my personal views pls dont read seriously.....

In, Feb 2012, there was an agreement signed between Tim and CIC, for a case management processing where a decision on a lead litigant would be enforced on all the other litigants..case processing Judge was same as Current and hearing / decision was given by same who would be proceding for January,

Decison was Victory....Lead litigant, Mr. Liang reached in August, and rest (Pre Feb. 2008) hoped that they will also fair decision but nothing has happened as yet, as agreement reached was not held by CIC and judge have also remained silent on that

Now, again it is a Case Managed Hearing, with lead litigants, of each of the lawyers.....but no agreement whether the decision on lead litigant to be applied to other litigants, so again a favourable decision to be applied to the lead litigant and rest are in a limbo !!!!!, decision "WON" but nothing happened for rest. :(

I am not hurting feeling of anybody, it is only my personal view...if things didn't happened for a won case back in June, I doubt for January.

Based on what the lawyers have stated in their updates, the hearings could not have been scheduled for January if the cases were certified as class action. So the current test case scenario already runs faster than class action.

Good day,


There is very, very little to report on the conference but people keep insisting on knowing, presuming as always either that I do not have enough to do as it is or that I cannot be trusted to keep you up-to-date on what you really need to know. So, here is the update:


1. Justice Rennie, who will be presiding over the hearing in January, allocated time to both sides to make their arguments and canvassed counsel as to which arguments they intended to raise and how long they expected to speak. For our group, he told me that I could only argue one case and had until Friday to say which one. I have not yet made that decision.


2. Justice Barnes cancelled the Tuesday hearing in view of what had been arranged at the Monday converence.


Regards,


Tim
