- Parties: The appellant was Grigore Vetrici. The respondent was the Attorney General of Canada. 

- Subject Matter: This appeal challenged a Federal Court judgment setting aside decisions declaring ineligibility for the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) and the Canada Recovery Benefit (CRB). The judgment allegedly failed to canvass the following: (1) whether the Santillana agreement, which set out a lodging benefit, established income under the CERB and CRB determination guidelines or under s. 6(1)(a) of the Income Tax Act, 1985; and (2) whether the Federal Court had jurisdiction to review the Canada Revenue Agency's determinations of income when the Income Tax Act provided that the Tax Court of Canada should exclusively deal with appeals of determinations of tax, including determinations of income. This case is ongoing. 

- Date: The hearing was set on Jan. 20, 2025. 

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

- Amount: No financial award was specified.
