At any time before the Adjudicator makes a Determination, the Parties may agree to terminate the adjudication on written notice to the Adjudicator and subject to payment of all applicable fees, costs and other charges, pursuant to section 27 of the Prompt Payment and Adjudication Regulation. The Parties can provide written notice to the Adjudicator by providing a Notice of Termination Form signed by all Parties.

A fillable PDF version of the Notice of Termination can be found here: Notice of Termination.

Parties must also file the Notice the Termination Form with ADACC at authority@adacc.ca.

Adjudication Fee Upon Termination

If all Parties agree to terminate the adjudication, the Parties and the Adjudicator will need to set the Adjudication Fee for the terminated adjudication. If the Parties and the Adjudicator do not agree on an Adjudication Fee, the Adjudicator will ask ADACC to set the Adjudication Fee. Please see the Schedule of Fees for information on how the termination fee will be set by ADACC.

FAQ: If the Parties agree to terminate the adjudication before an Adjudicator is appointed, will there be an Adjudication Fee?

No. If the Parties agree to terminate the adjudication before the appointment of an Adjudicator, then ADACC will set the Adjudication Fee at $0. An Adjudication Filing Fee may be payable by the Claimant, as described here: Schedule of Fees.
