On May 1, 2008, the BC Court of Appeal allowed E-Care’s appeal from the decision of Judge Wedge, and decided that the British Columbia Supreme Court does not have jurisdiction to deal with overtime claims in a civil action, if the overtime claim is solely based on statutory rights contained in the BC Employment Standards Act.

I am incredibly appreciative of Sean Tevlin. Simply put - my life and future are much better due to Sean's representation. His calm, professional approach, advise and guidance were significant factors that enabled me to come to a successful agreement with my employer. I will always be grateful to Sean and the staff at Tevlin Gleadle Curtis and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a labour lawyer.
