What happened

The ruling

The Board shall schedule this application for a video hearing on an expedited basis. The Landlord shall not re-rent the rental unit until this application is resolved or the Board orders otherwise. The Landlord shall preserve and keep safe any property belonging to the Tenant that is in the Landlords' control. The initial and primary focus of the expedited hearing shall be on the T2 application allegation that the Tenant has been illegally locked out.
