Notice

Non-payment of rent (N4)

Landlord

Tenant

N.O.

What happened

The Tenant requested a review of an eviction order issued on July 2, 2025. The Tenant alleged that the presiding Member committed a serious error by refusing to hear evidence regarding maintenance issues (Section 82) and by limiting cross-examination. The LTB Member conducting the review determined that the original Member was justified in restricting the Tenant's participation because the Tenant had failed to comply with a previous interim order requiring the payment of ongoing rent. The Tenant admitted to not making payments, citing maintenance issues as the reason for withholding rent.

The ruling

The request for review is denied. The original order issued on July 2, 2025, which terminated the tenancy and authorized eviction for non-payment of rent, is confirmed and remains unchanged.
