Tenant

V.G.

What happened

Tenant appealed an interim order of the Landlord and Tenant Board that preserved her tenancy but dismissed her request to be re-admitted to the rental premises pending an urgent hearing. The tenant claimed she was illegally evicted by the landlord without a Board order.

The ruling

The Divisional Court stayed the tenant's appeal of the LTB's interim order, finding it premature and likely to be moot. The court directed the tenant to seek recourse at the upcoming LTB hearing scheduled for November 10, 2021.
