Dispute

Maintenance, Non-payment of Rent

Landlord

T.Q.P.

Tenant

S.C.Y., H.M.S.

What happened

The Former Tenants requested a review of an LTB order that required them to pay rent and daily compensation. The Tenants argued that the original adjudicator erred by refusing to consider maintenance issues they attempted to raise under section 82 of the Act. The review adjudicator found that the original member had a rational basis to exclude these issues because the Tenants' evidence regarding the timing of their disclosure to the Landlord was deemed unreliable.

The ruling

The request to review the order dated August 15, 2025, is denied. The original order, which likely required the Former Tenants to pay rent arrears and compensation, remains unchanged and in full effect. The Board confirmed that the Tenants were properly barred from raising maintenance issues because they did not meet the legal requirements for pre-hearing disclosure.
