Landlord rep

What happened

The Tenant appealed a Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) consent order requiring him to vacate the rental unit for demolition. The Divisional Court previously quashed an appeal of this consent order. The Tenant then sought review of the consent order, which the LTB dismissed. The Tenant appealed this dismissal, and the Landlord brought a motion to quash the appeal.

The ruling

The court quashed the Tenant's appeal of the LTB's review decision, finding it did not raise a question of law, was devoid of merit, and constituted an abuse of process. The Tenant was ordered to pay $9,000 in rent monthly from June to September 2023, with eviction permitted starting October 1, 2023 if payments are made. If any payment is missed, the Landlord may seek immediate eviction.
