What happened

The landlord sought to evict the tenant for the purpose of demolishing the premises. The Landlord and Tenant Board granted the eviction order, which the tenant appealed to the Divisional Court on the grounds of procedural unfairness, claiming his lawyer was unable to attend the LTB hearing.

The ruling

The Divisional Court dismissed the tenant's appeal of the LTB eviction order, finding no procedural unfairness in the LTB hearing. The court ordered the tenant to pay $8,467.50 in costs to the landlord and directed the Sheriff to enforce the eviction order on June 1, 2022, or as soon as practicable thereafter.
