What happened
Landlord applied for termination of tenancy and eviction due to non-payment of rent. Tenant requested a review of the original order, citing maintenance issues and alleging that they were not permitted to make submissions regarding the Landlord's serious breach of responsibilities. The Board granted the review and held hearings to consider the Tenant's claims of maintenance issues and the Landlord's application for eviction.
The ruling
The Board granted the review of the original order and issued a new order. The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant voids the order by paying the specified amounts. The Tenant must move out by February 10, 2023, if payment is not made. The Landlord is restricted from pursuing rent arrears in other courts until related Tenant applications are heard.
