What happened

The Tenants filed a T2 application alleging that the Landlord substantially interfered with their reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit. During the proceedings, it was revealed that the named Landlord was a former property manager no longer responsible for the premises. Despite two prior interim orders directing the Tenants to identify and name the correct landlord by January 2025, the Tenants failed to comply or provide a sufficient reason for the delay. Consequently, the Board denied an adjournment request and dismissed the application because the requested remedies could not be ordered against a party no longer in control of the property.

The ruling

The application is dismissed. The Tenants failed to name the correct Landlord and ignored multiple Board orders to rectify the error. As the named party is a former property manager with no current responsibility for the residential complex, no legal remedy could be granted against them.
