What is the process for hearing a personal injury claim at the BC SPCA?

4. The tribunal has discretion to decide the format of the hearing, including by writing, telephone, videoconferencing, email, or a combination of these. I decided to hear this dispute through written submissions, because while there are inconsistencies in the evidence about the circumstances of the collision, I find I can fairly resolve the dispute based on the documentary evidence before me. This conclusion is consistent with the court’s observations of the tribunal’s processes in the recent decision in Yas v. Pope, 2018 BCSC 282 (CanLII). I note that no one requested an oral hearing.
