D.P. c/o B. F G.M. Inc.

Tenant

A., B., M.

What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to non-payment of rent. The original order was issued on March 6, 2019. Tenants requested a review on April 5, 2019. At the review hearing, the Landlord consented to the review but failed to attend. The Tenant invoked their right under s. 82(1) of the Residential Tenancies Act to raise issues that could be the subject of a tenant application.

The ruling

The Board cancelled the original order, adjourned the re-hearing, and ordered the Tenants to provide written notice of their claim to the Landlord before the rescheduled hearing. The $520.00 paid into the Board in trust will continue to be held until the application is heard or the Board orders otherwise.
