What happened

The Landlord sought a review of a previous order that dismissed an application for eviction based on a termination agreement. The original application (L3) was dismissed because it was filed after the 30-day statutory deadline. The Landlord's representative argued that the late filing was due to an administrative error by Service Ontario, claiming an attempt was made to file on time. However, the Board found the evidence and testimony provided by the Landlord's representative to be inconsistent and lacking credibility.

The ruling

The Landlord's request to review the order dismissing the eviction application was denied. The Board confirmed that the application to terminate the tenancy based on an agreement was filed past the 30-day statutory limit. The original order issued on May 27, 2025, which dismissed the Landlord's application, remains unchanged.
