What happened

The Landlord applied to evict the Tenant for non-payment of rent. During the hearing, the Tenant attempted to raise maintenance issues under section 82 of the Act, but was not permitted to do so because they had failed to comply with a previous interim order (LTB-L-063015-24-IN) that required them to pay rent in full and on time. The Tenant acknowledged being unable to afford the rent and had accumulated arrears of over $30,000. The Board denied the Tenant's request for relief from eviction, citing the significant financial hardship caused to the Landlord and the prejudice of further delays.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant pays the Landlord $30,758.60 by April 27, 2025. If the Tenant fails to pay and void the order, they must move out by April 27, 2025, and pay the Landlord $25,804.98, plus a daily compensation of $105.34 from April 15, 2025, until they vacate. The Landlord can file for enforcement with the Sheriff if the Tenant does not move out by the specified date.
