What happened
The Tenant requested a review of a consent order issued on November 4, 2025, which resolved the Landlord's application for termination and eviction due to non-payment and persistent late payment of rent. The Tenant argued that there was a serious error regarding the amount owed and claimed they did not receive independent legal advice. The Board found that the order accurately reflected the terms agreed upon by the parties at a hearing and noted that the Tenant had explicitly declined legal counsel at that time.
The ruling
The Tenant's request for a review of the order dated November 4, 2025, is denied. The original order, which was made on consent of both parties, remains confirmed and unchanged. The Board found no serious error in the calculation of arrears or the procedure, especially since the Tenant had waived the right to legal counsel.
