(the 'Tenant') because the Tenant failed to meet a condition specified in the order issued by the Board on October 12, 2022 with respect to application TSL-13963-20-RV. A hearing was held to consider this application. This application was heard by videoconference (VC#101) on May 16, 2023. Only the Landlord attended the hearing. As of 9:42 a.m., the Tenant was not present or represented at the hearing although properly served with notice of this hearing by the Board. There was no record of a request to adjourn the hearing. As a result, the hearing proceeded with only the Landlord’s evidence. Determinations: 1. The prior order provided in paragraph 5 that the Landlord could apply to the Board under section 78 of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the Act) without notice to the Tenant to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant if the Tenant did not meet certain condition(s) specified in the order. Paragraph 5 states the application must be made within 30 days of the breach. 2. Section 78 of the Act also requires the L4 application to be filed within 30 days of a breach. 3. This L4 application was filed with the Board and received by email on December 28, 2022.
