| What are the requirements for the submission of evidence?
|
TTR 342 of the Tribunal's Rules of Practice and Procedure requires that:
"...written evidence shall be submitted to the opposing party and the Tribunal not less than 14 days before the date of the hearing."
The purpose of this rule is to avoid surprise and to provide both parties an opportunity to review and prepare a response to the other party's evidence before the hearing. Sometimes, the Tribunal may accept evidence that was not timely submitted to the opposing party if the Tribunal concludes that the late submission of the evidence does not harm (prejudice) the other party's ability to respond. The judge will make these determinations on a case-by-case basis.
