Dispute

Non-payment of Rent

Notice

Non-payment of rent (N4)

Landlord

N.U.H.

Tenant

R.A.W.

What happened

The Tenant requested a review of a consent order issued on July 29, 2025, which resolved a non-payment of rent application. The Tenant argued they were not reasonably able to participate because they did not understand the process or consequences and were pressured by the Landlord's legal representative. The Tenant also submitted that their circumstances had changed, as they now have government financial support and a work permit.

The ruling

The request to review order LTB-L-018743-25 is denied. The original order, which was reached via consent, remains in effect and unchanged. The Board found that the Tenant's claims of pressure and lack of understanding were not supported by the hearing record, and subsequent improvements in the Tenant's financial situation did not justify a new hearing.
