What happened

The Tenants initially applied for an order determining that the original Landlords and the Purchaser Landlords issued a notice of termination in bad faith. After an order was issued, the Purchaser Landlords filed a request for review, which was resolved. They filed a second review request, which was denied. This order addresses their third request, which sought to review the denial of their second request. The Board denied this latest request, confirming that the Purchaser Landlords have exhausted the LTB's review process.

The ruling

The Purchaser Landlords' request to review the order LTB-T-009782-23-RV2, issued on June 10, 2025, is denied. The Board confirmed that under its rules, a party cannot file a review of a review order. The Purchaser Landlords have exhausted the LTB's review process. The prior order is confirmed and remains unchanged.
