What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent and illegal acts. The Tenant did not attend the initial hearing, but later requested a review, claiming he did not receive the notice of hearing. The Board granted the review and conducted a new hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective May 31, 2023, unless the Tenant pays the full amount owing by that date. If the Tenant does not pay, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff for enforcement. The Tenant was given until May 31, 2023 to vacate the unit, as the Board found it would not be fair to grant a shorter timeline given the Tenant's personal circumstances.
