What happened

Tenant filed applications to determine if the Residential Tenancies Act applies and to claim illegal charges by the Landlords. The dispute arose from an unauthorized subtenancy agreement between Tenant and one of the Landlords, without the consent of the primary Landlord.

The ruling

The Tenant's T1 application is dismissed. The Residential Tenancies Act does not apply in this case as the Tenant was determined to be an unauthorized occupant, not a subtenant. The Landlord and Tenant Board does not have jurisdiction over the matter.
