- Parties: The applicant was Christopher Andrew Anthony Williams. The respondent was the Attorney General of Canada. 

- Subject Matter: This matter involved the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Act, 1985 and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Regulations, 1988 (SOR/88-361). This judicial review application sought to set aside a decision by the delegate of the Commissioner of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) under s. 37(c) of the Commissioner’s Standing Orders (Grievances and Appeals), SOR/2014-289. The decision dismissed the applicant’s appeal of denied representation as moot under s. 47(2) of the Commissioner’s Standing Orders (Grievance and Appeals). The application alleged that the statutory designated erred in fact and law by finding the applicant’s appeal moot and by declining to exercise her discretion to decide the merits of the underlying appeal, as well as based her decision on erroneous factual findings and made her decision in a perverse or capricious manner or without regard for the material before her. This case is ongoing. 

- Date: The hearing was set on Apr. 4, 2025. 

- Venue: This was a federal case before the Federal Court. 

- Amount: No financial award was specified.
