AMENDED Order under Section 69 2023 ONLTB 46448 (CanLII) Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 Citation: B. v M., 2023 ONLTB 46448 Date: 2023-06-29 File Number: LTB-L-011548-22-AM In the matter of: 12 Coveney Marathon ON P0T2E0 Between: C.B.A.C.B. L. A. M. M. Tenant C.B.A.C.B. (the 'L.') applied for an order to terminate the tenancy A. evict M. M. (the 'Tenant') because the Tenant did not pay the rent that the Tenant owes. It is determined that: 1. This application was originally heard by videoconference on August 31, 2022 A. resolved by order LTB-L-011548-22 issued on January 19, 2023. On January 23, 2023, the L. filed a request to amend the order on the basis that it clerically errs in relation to the amount of arrears of rent owing. As the presiding member is no longer an adjudicator with the LTB, I exercised my discretion to consider the request in their absence. As I am unable to determine whether the order clerically errs as alleged without additional submissions from the parties, I determined that it is appropriate for me to direct this request to a clerical amendment hearing. 2. The clerical amendment hearing took place by videoconference on June 5, 2023, at which time only the L. attended the hearing. Licensed Paralegal Elaine Page assisted the L. as a friend of the LTB. 3. As of 10:07 a.m., the Tenant was not present or represented at the hearing although properly served with notice of this hearing by the LTB. There was no record of a request to adjourn the hearing. As a result, the hearing proceeded with only the L.'s evidence. Order Page: 1 of 3 4. The L. served the Tenant with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice).
