What happened

The Tenant requested a review of an eviction order issued for non-payment of rent. The Tenant argued that he was overseas at the time of the hearing, received short notice, and was unable to gather evidence. However, the Board found that the Tenant had actually attended the original hearing, participated actively, and failed to request an adjournment or rescheduling at that time. The Board determined the Tenant was not diligent and that the review request was an attempt to re-argue the case.

The ruling

The Tenant's request for a review of the eviction order is denied. The original order issued on July 8, 2025, which terminated the tenancy due to non-payment of rent, remains in full force and effect. The Board found the Tenant's arguments regarding his inability to participate lacked merit as he had attended the hearing and failed to request an adjournment at the appropriate time.
