Tenant

S.A.

What happened

The landlord applied to lift the suspension on evicting the tenant, which was imposed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Landlord and Tenant Board had previously ordered the tenant to vacate the unit by March 22, 2020 due to non-payment of rent. The landlord requires the unit for his own use as he has sold his current home.

The ruling

The court ordered that the eviction of the tenant can proceed, overriding the COVID-19 eviction moratorium. The Sheriff is directed to expedite the eviction process and give vacant possession of the unit to the landlord on or after May 19, 2020.
