What happened
Tenants appealed an LTB eviction order to the Divisional Court. The original eviction order was based on the tenants' breach of a consent order to pay rental arrears. The tenants claim the landlord misrepresented their payment status to the LTB. The court is considering whether the appeal raises a question of law and setting conditions for maintaining the stay of eviction.
The ruling
The court set conditions for maintaining the stay of eviction, including immediate payment of $9,890 in arrears, bringing 2024 monthly rent instalments current, and ongoing payments of $1,978 monthly towards arrears plus $3,650 monthly rent. The court will consider written submissions on whether the appeal raises a question of law before deciding if it should proceed.
