What happened

Tenant appealed an LTB decision that upheld her eviction for violating a prior order requiring her to maintain cleanliness of the rental unit. The tenant sought an extension of time to appeal the LTB's decision to the Divisional Court.

The ruling

The Divisional Court dismissed the tenant's motion to extend the time to appeal the LTB's eviction order. The court found that the tenant did not exercise diligence in pursuing her appeal rights and did not present a valid question of law for appeal as required by the Residential Tenancies Act.
