for those that aren't familiar how this works, there's actually this rule book that you have to abide by, like you're playing an exotic board game.

"can you move backwards?"
"shit. i dunno. where's the rules?"
"over there.."

(pause)

"did you use the rule book for filter? fucker."
"i just used the back"
"still. whatever, let's just make it up. let's vote. who says we can move backwards?"

(pause)

"so we can move backwards."

but, you can't fuck with these rules, or at least not unless it says you can fuck with the rules in the rules and you're the judge. these rules are set.

and, they're set in legislation called the rules of civil procedure.

this is a common question, so you expect a clear answer:

Place of Hearing

(1.1) The application shall be heard in the county where the proceeding was commenced or to which it has been transferred under rule 13.1.02, unless the court orders otherwise.  O. Reg. 438/08, s. 38.

well, that's pretty obvious, but where was this commenced?

- the incident happened in windsor.
- i filed in windsor.
- they accepted it from toronto.
- the report was done in windsor.
- i asked for a review from windsor.
- they accepted the review in toronto.

and, as i'm asking for them to pull the review, that should be the proceeding, and it should be in toronto.

if the judge wants to transfer to london, she can do that.

ok.

that'll save me some time & money.
