What happened

The Landlord requested a review of an LTB order issued on March 26, 2025, which had imposed a $5,000.00 administrative fine against him. The original order found that the Landlord had harassed the Tenant and changed the locks without providing a key. In the review request, the Landlord argued the fine was unreasonable, that he had evidence of legal communication attempts, and that health issues during the original hearing prevented him from properly representing himself. The Board conducted a preliminary review without a hearing and found that the Landlord failed to demonstrate a serious error in the original proceeding.

The ruling

The request for review is denied. The original order LTB-L-050430-23, which includes a $5,000.00 administrative fine against the Landlord for harassment and illegal lockout, remains in full effect. The Landlord's arguments regarding health issues and the unreasonableness of the fine were rejected.
