What happened

The Tenant requested a review of an eviction order issued for non-payment of rent, claiming he did not receive the Notice of Hearing. The Tenant alleged he was forced to give his mailbox key to another tenant, leading to delayed mail. However, the upstairs tenant provided credible testimony that LTB mail was hand-delivered to the Tenant on multiple occasions. The Landlords argued the Tenant had not paid rent for 12 months, causing financial hardship.

The ruling

The Tenant's request for review is denied and the original order terminating the tenancy remains in effect. The stay of the eviction order is lifted immediately. The Tenant failed to demonstrate that he was unable to participate in the hearing through no fault of his own, and his 12-month history of non-payment justified immediate enforcement of the eviction.
