What happened

Tenant Kuffuor seeks an extension of time to appeal a November 10, 2022 decision of the Landlord and Tenant Board. The LTB had previously ordered the termination of Kuffuor's tenancy and eviction due to willful or negligent damage to the rental unit, and ordered Kuffuor to pay repair costs of $6,237.60. Kuffuor's request for a review of this decision was denied by the LTB.

The ruling

The court granted an extension of time for the tenant to file his notice of appeal of the LTB decision. The tenant is ordered to serve the certificate of evidence within 10 days, file the notice of appeal and certificate of evidence with proof of service within 15 days, and ensure the notice of appeal is assigned a Divisional Court file number.
