File Number: LTB-L-072924-25
Timeline
Hearing Date
Jan 2026
Order Date
Jan 13, 2026
Decision
The request for review is denied. The original eviction order is confirmed, but the stay of the order is extended until February 12, 2026, to allow the Tenant time to vacate.
Reason for Eviction Relief
The Adjudicator granted a brief delay to the eviction date to allow the Tenant time to vacate, considering the Landlord holds a rent deposit.
Dispute
The Tenant requested a review of an eviction order based on a claim that they were unable to participate in the original hearing due to a death in the family. The Adjudicator denied the review, finding the Tenant failed to provide requested documentation and failed to exercise due diligence to attend the hearing.
Determinations
- The Tenant failed to prove they were reasonably unable to participate in the original hearing.
- The Tenant failed to provide evidence of the emergency claimed (death certificate) as ordered.
- The request for review based on serious error was not substantiated as the Tenant did not attend the original hearing to contest the issues.
Landlord's Arguments
Arguments
The Landlord argued that the Tenant's lack of due diligence should result in the denial of the review and that further delay causes prejudice.
Actions and Evidence
The Landlord attended the hearing and requested the stay be lifted immediately or by January 31, 2026, due to accruing rent arrears.
