What happened in this matter?
Outdated Advice: Repealed Law | The appellant cited section 58(1) and section 58(3) of the Assessment Act as authority for an application to reassess. The Board found that section 58 had been repealed in 2024, making the cited authority null, and disregarded the request based on it. The appellant relied on sections 58(1), 58(3), and 37(1)(b) of British Columbia’s Assessment Act as authority for an application to reassess. The Board found that section 58 had been repealed and that section 37 no longer contained the cited subsection or served the relied-on purpose. The Assessor suggested that the use of outdated provisions might result from AI. The Board noted that AI-generated submissions must be disclosed and accurate, but accepted the appellant’s materials because the appellant stated they had been reviewed and there was no contrary evidence. The outdated statutory references were disregarded, and no sanction or penalty was imposed.
